Beyond

I wrote this one on the last night of the Alaskan cruise...


In the innocent ripple,
in the rhythmic waves,
in the high cliff faces,
in the big bear caves,

In the towering mountain peaks,
in the cold glacial ice,
in the humpback whales,
in bigger than what will just suffice,

In the sun through the clouds,
in the dancing light reflections,
there lies one simple thing:
complete perfection.

...Yet even beyond this perfection,
lies something yet to be seen.
It will transcend the realm of possible.
Please let it crash over me.
