I liked this poem. The fleeting nature of a wave is clearly portrayed. The abb cdd bb rhyme scheme hinted at the repetitious nature of waves.

nice simple poem about the nature of waves - they keep coming one after another then fading away sort of like life in a way we keep walking into the future with our prior actions fading into the past.

I love your poem. One of my favorite activities while sitting on a beach is to listen to the waves as they crash around the rocks, etc. it gives me a peaceful vibe.
Snd it's fun to watch the wave crash then disappear. Thanks for sharing this with us and good luck in the contest.

A beautifully reflective poem filled with wisdom. Life itself is transitory...
Still, we watch the ripple, the swell, the crest, and the crash and pray we always remember the beauty of each phase!
(And Happy Birthday!)

Of course you can still have a view of this endless sea, that comes to us in wave after wave, like us each wave is individual and still Carrie's on into the memory of that wave, beautifully written Willie, happy birthday mate, blessings Roy

I very much enjoyed your apt description of the tides, and how the waves reach the shore only to disappear. This is a perfect topic for the "The roaring sea" prompt. Your rhymes work very well, but I would have preferred if you'd used a consistent rhythm as well.

You have done a good job with this prompt, Willie. You have also done it with a very short poem. For over forty years, my office was just stone's throw from the ocean waves.

This has everything it needs in this contest, and I enjoyed the simplicity of your words. Where the ocean is concerned, less is more. It's nice to simply admire its beauty. Loved this, Best, JohnC
