How I admire your singularity
of purpose; your timeless hurling
against rock and sand and I wonder
 
is it only the whip of a goading wind
that quickens your curling hands
to pummel these innocent shores?
 
For I hear within your malevolent roar
the counter rhyme of your retreating sigh;
the curse of forever
 
chasing the Moon’s cold heart
that spurs you in your surge
first in her coming, again as she goes.
Very clever
The tides.
At first, I was bothered by all the anthropomorphising that made it sound archaic, but I think it fits the poem
