Sea of Stars

  The reflection of the moon stands upon the crest of the
ocean. The glittering sand sits, as fallen stars, upon a
crystal ledge. The silver moon lies on the sapphire sea
soaking in the fire of the ocean's depth.
   The roaring ocean crashes and breaks as it touches the
fiery sand. With cold, wet, fingers the blue-green water
grasps the bits of silver-white stardust. It pulls and
tugs as the sand is pulled into the smother waves
of the ocean.
   Then the golden lightning flashes against the sky. The
wind spins and teases the rolling waves. They collapse
as the angry thunder shakes the earth beneath it. In the
morning the world will be calm and cool. Chaos and discourse
belong to the night.
