Evening dawns on the picturesque beach
As the fiery ball slips out of reach
It gives the coast a lantern's glow
Like the masterpiece of a painter great
The ocean being true to its trait
Nudges the waves in a rhythmic flow.

The soothing sand exudes heat no more
As darkness ascends on the calming shore
The oscillating waves sing in melody
With a crashing sound accompanied by thunder
In an effort to hide down under
Secrets known only to the sea.

At times getting violent, and calm otherwise
No one would want the sleeping monster to rise.
The light salty breeze to the sea being peculiar
Gets carried over a thousand miles
From crowded cities to distant isles
After a while only to disappear.

The tides controlled by the orb silvery white
Mark boundaries alike through day and night
Churning out the sea from bed to land
Thus replacing the old for new
That only change is constant seems definitely true
Even nature has everything planned.
