Unforeseen Tides

“Your hesitant silhouette reflects on the crisp blue water…”

your hesitant silhouette

reflects on the crisp blue water; an infinite sea of possibilities lies before you

a fortuitous pebble strides,

a hermit crab finds a new shell;

an unforeseen tide:

one ripple two ripples three ripples

so on,

and so forth

the crisp blue is now but a hazy sea of uncertainty

your silhouette is reborn:

its reflection

transforms,

goes with the flow

of a wise current,

of the unforeseen tide

for it’s one with the sage waves;

aligned with the sea of change;

there’s nothing to hesitate:

new beginnings await.
