Untitled
by Laura Bean
the sounds of the sea
as the waves crest and flow
the strong arm of the tide
signals to all below
wind whistling, whirring
as the storm approaches
the brave crave the waves
as the danger encroaches
pouncing on the beach
the lioness in all her glory
the storm rocks the coast
the scene seems gory
but thankfully the tide
gave warning to the beach
and when the storm brewed
all were far from reach
