Tiny, silvery minnows dart! First here! Then there!
Playing hide-and- seek with golden sunbeams without a care!
Uncovered sand crabs swiftly dig in the soaking wet sand
To protect themselves from being grabbed by bill or hand!
Happy colored cocchinea clams snuggle close together
Holding on to each grain of sand as if it were a tether!
Uninhabited Whelks do somersaults as each wave laps up the beach
Only to be carried away by another wave leaving before my hands can reach!
I am again astounded by God's amazing aquatic creations
And the eloquence of their silence that speaks to me without hesitation
Assuring me in my emptiness of God's endless love and power
Encouraging me to be aware of His Presence in every second of each hour!
