Bronte at the break of Dawn!

Bronte beach at the break of Dawn…   Waves, thunder-clapping on the shores… As the wind blows, the ocean roars!   Respect the Ocean ,when you see… Its manic temper, with the wind it can be!   It is only water… Gentle it be…. As a droplet of dew on , a leaf of a tree!   When in the Ocean, that droplet falls… It turns into a Might , that thunders and roars!   As the Wind, from Bronte Cliff swoop down to  ...
