From Atop a Ledge in Caumsett

See the Sound
Sea so solemn
With wrinkled ripples
In trickling columns
From a ledge so high
Well-elevated
On which gusty winds
Are concentrated
And spit the misty
Spray of waves
Carving sandy,
Stone-speckled caves
On the broad and
Waning slope of
Earth.

Caumsett State Park in Lloyd Neck, Long Island is sandwiched between the navy-blue shore of Long Island Sound and placid, sun-stained bay-water.

The rhythm you've created is elegant. Great work.
