Transition

Like a waveless ocean awaiting tsunami.
The sand tenses. Trees try to shuffle away.
Sea horses gallop. Crabs get friendly.
Big fish, little fish, work in harmony
to avoid induction, gills pumping.
The sky still looks the same, but closer.
From afar and still silent, forces gather.
The beach is too big to escape.
Embrace the moment at hand. Build a castle.
