Caroling

                                                                  

This sun-gloried Nativity-eve a.m.,

We awaken, later than our dreams,

To the syncopated cadences of breaking waves

Caroling, just below us, nine stories close.

We're being visited by a Christmas epiphany.

 

Buoyant souls born of the ocean's sleep-womb,

Flowing into each other, as one being,

We listen to the sea's heartbeats singing noels,

As they subside into distant silence,

Only to rise, over and over — hymns to joy.
