Tumbling, turning end over end
Breath collapses with every bend
Heart seizes with terror in a silent cry
Life flashes before her little eye
Caught in a wave with no escape
Knives battering her tiny shape
A frantic touch just here and there
Arms that enclose her everywhere
Safe from the water that desires her soul
Snatched from the billowing, brazen black hole
Lashes heavy with sea and salt
Tears overflow in thunderous assault
Sand crammed in places it shouldn't be
"Not today," Mom whispers to the beckoning sea.
Also, I am looking for a few fantasy lovers to help edit my NaNo novel on a private (wordpress) blog. If interested, please send me an email at thedramamamaanswers@gmail.com with your wordpress email address.
