I am calm
playing a peaceful tune
to the children of Earth
I dance a waltz
while the sun and moon
orchestrate lullaby's birth
I am angry
toward fisherman's greed
which causes him to take
more than he needs
I can swallow a giant
with one simple wave
bringing fear to the eyes
of the arrogant and brave
I am home to many
since time began
long before you were born
and after you've died
I will continue
to offer my tide
just to take it away.
