Samantha screamed.
I followed her gaze
towards this entity
the sea, so
alien to me.
Mighty waves rose
sucked by the moon
arching high
into the sky
racing to the shore.
Crashing onto
pale dry shells.
the liquid beast
then sucked back
from the sand.
Saline liquid rose
ten feet into the air
a huge rolling swell;
stretched forth
down the coast.
Strong sunlight on
mountains of green
and blue waves,
tipped with
white foam,
rolling towards
a trembling shore.
Water thundered and crashed
onto seething stones
and sand beneath.
Ever moving
ever shifting
nightmare of
menacing water
what will you claim?
