here on treasure island<\/p>\n
there are blue crystal sand dunes that peak<\/p>\n
from my white wraparound porch<\/p>\n
and after hours-<\/p>\n
after all is quiet<\/p>\n
and the passer-byers are all home in their beds;<\/p>\n
the tide rolls up almost to the posts that hold us<\/p>\n
suspended in the air-<\/p>\n
but it never comes quite this far<\/p>\n
even when the sea is rough<\/p>\n
the bubbly white line only comes so far<\/p>\n
as if there is some invisible wall that only God can see.<\/p>\n
it is then that the soft moonlight falls over the whole ocean<\/p>\n
and i am awed at the creativity of His mighty hand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
