Waiting
02.14.06 (2:55 am) [edit]Waiting
The old man sat,
Thinking,
Looking at the ocean
Lulled by the sound…..
The beauty
Of the crashing of the waves
Upon the white sand.
Waiting,
Something done all his days
Knowing that something
Hidden,
Secret,
Fearful,
Was in wait for him,
A date with destiny,
No escape,
Or place to run.
Old and tired
These last few years
He has made his peace
Now sitting here,
Alone,
He embraced what was coming
Opening up his heart
Longing for the consummation
Of his life.
