The Ocean


we are all but tiny drops of water
that together form a mighty ocean

we as human pursue superficial goals
restricted by primitive emotions and petty desires
but the ocean flow is majestic and spiritual
her waves are tied and in harmony with the universe

we say little
we prove nothing
we destroy all

but the ocean has its own voice
and is never silent
it can teach us so much

we are lost
but the ocean has direction

we will die
never knowing

but in time
the ocean will flow
back through us

and we will sail
like glorious ships
onto a beautiful new land 1
