Silence (free verse)

The waves rose, then fell slowly,
into the morning mist,
In the water floating by,
There were no swimming fish,
The depth was deep, but still was shallow,
and shells were scattered around,
And though there were some ocean noises,
You would hear no sound,
This was a very lonely place,
One where no one liked to go,
And still this place lies by itself,
Silent and Alone.
