WAVE
I choose the fish not the cross
And will not a martyr be
But rather a fish or a wave
Of an unchartered yet sunlit sea
Come friend and drink your fill
For why should we strangers be
When I am but a standing wave
And you are a swell like me
O wave become the rain
O rain become the sea
O if I wave at you
Will you wave at me
And will not a martyr be
But rather a fish or a wave
Of an unchartered yet sunlit sea
Come friend and drink your fill
For why should we strangers be
When I am but a standing wave
And you are a swell like me
O wave become the rain
O rain become the sea
O if I wave at you
Will you wave at me

"But rather a fish or a wave

Such beautiful sentiment and expression here. Can feel the draw to explore that sea. I, myself, am a rolling wave... but definitely will wave as I pass.
Much enjoyed.

Thanks Shine - look forward to you rolling by!!!
In quantum physics - a standing wave occurs when particle waves meet creating a double helix (amongst other things) or a vortex

Isn't this simply spectacular!
Perfect length, leaving us readers wanting more. Deep content, beneath waves.
Why must strangers remain so when it's quite obvious a thread of friendship connects them? you ask. Is the feeling mutual? you ask

That's all we need to do to create - just connect
Thanks Wanderer for the kind Add
To paraphrase EMForster - just connect and the human spirit will be exalted

Wise words. Though I noticed some spirits exalt mine more than others after such contact. And some simply do the opposite.
Worse still are connection that fall back to "normalcy"
Even waves have sizes...

This is wonderful ... Powerful even. If we all only did more to feed our brothers and sisters, find the commonality that unites us in the day to day ebbs and flows of life rather than destroy each other over how we pray ...
And what do we pray for ... The destruction of other waves because their waters are blue and ours green.
Bravo!

We're all parts of a caterpillar ocean crawling rhythmically in tune to one another - pushing, being pushed, pulling, being pulled, all the while waving.
I choose to believe the waves are a personification of love. Beautifully done, Whale.

I love this, love poems about the sea... not structured as such but has the feel of a chantey... maybe because drinking involved...

You always bring me to
such intercourse with your
pieces..
and what I mean by that is
because as of right now
my now is tilted upwardly
in smelling the sands, the
salted waves of the waters
and my soul's ears are
wide open can hear them
rise and crash... can hear
and feel them rushing forth.
I greatly appreciate this,
s'pose it was needed.. in
which it is.
Beautiful harsh truth
