The ocean does not preach a sermon
Though it has much to tell
That it shares with the moon and every sea shell
It bravely tells as it swells to the shore
Deep like a poet that speaks high to the sea gulls that soar
But Its stories are not heard by man and his makings
For he does not hear when he is too busy taking
He builds and he builds as he strips from the land
It is a sad truth widely known by each grain of sand
So the sea keeps on moving and reaching out
Whispering a message of longing that is true no doubt
For The ocean does not preach a sermon
Though it has much to say
It is heard not in man’s churches but in each unsettling
wave.
