2.23.2024 – wilderness of waves

wilderness of waves,
dip and dive, rise and roll, hide
a desert of waves

The sea is a wilderness of waves,
A desert of water.
We dip and dive,
Rise and roll,
Hide and are hidden
On the sea.
Day, night,
Night, day,
The sea is a desert of waves,
A wilderness of water.

Long Trip by Langston Hughes, in Poetry, compiled from poems published between 1921 and 1928.
