Whipping Waves

by

Kenneth A. Elliott




Whipping waves is what wild winds do;
White caps peak mid the deep sea blue;
Seabirds soar above the windy roar;
The river�s beauty is a constant lure.

Frantic winds churn the river caps
While the shoreline bears the river�s laps;
Howling sounds fill the air;
Birds fly wearily and with care.

The day star warms the moving air;
New life emerges with Nature�s green flair.
Grasses greening in the warming air;
The dawn of summer is everywhere!
