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 be…

The stirrers of Nature, physically!

Pounding pushing the wind behold…

As the turbulent currents devour the coast, with waves so bold!

Winter swimmers, gather to swim I see…

Charging their energy for endurance, they seem to be!

The cold , for it is winter in Sydney’s Bronte ..

But when the adrenaline pumps!

As they dive …It is bliss….

A lifestyle, can’t you see?
