Janus Wish by the Sea

Janus Wish by the Sea

Painting and Poem by Abe V Rotor

Details of Mural by AVR 2008

Wish the dawn comes early,

the tides kind and low,

the bay calm and creaseless,

and time moves slow.

Wish the wind to build up

to a frightful rage,

the waves lap the shore

to test courage.

Wish the picnic in another time

and let the plans be gone;

too mean, or too naïve, the sea,

it waits for no one.

Wish whichever mood the sea,

lovers are blinded by desire,

ease and danger, in a drama

close to water and fire. ~
