Sea Change

Life is an ocean of change where birds of hope and dreams ride high
on the crests of waves.
Yet, fortune buffets the floundering birds and pounds their beating
wings,
Inescapable are the bestial waves of fate forming from insurmountable
seas.
Cast on an island, the wanderer shares it's bereft and forsaken
qualities.
All around is a deafening silence and a screeching of hungry seabirds
anxious for their prey.
