within the breakers at ocean shore
tiny living beings tumble
their lives turned upside down
over and over   they struggle
with all their lifeforce to survive
just one more wave and i will breathe
i will catch a breath and hold on

we are at that shore   relaxation     stillness
and soon we float to the top and above us see
a blue blue sky
