Waves In a Water Cage
by mazHur
Like a lion in a cage
you will remain confined
to the surface of the Sea;
Oh, waves! With all your fury
you'll remain tamed
in the surge of water;
I will keep watching you
like people watch beasts
imprisoned in cages
of concrete and steel
which they can't get out from;
you too, angry waves, relax
I am young and beyond your reach
come with full force if you can
my legs are strong to outrun you;
you may be strong but I
can tame the smaller beastly
ripples and wade;
perchance you lost your mind
and tried to catch me
I bet you will fail,
and even if you broke your limits
you won't get me;
I am young and strong
my legs are brisk
my moves are rapid
better not foam and flash,
come on, catch me;
catch me if you can,
I am running and can escape
from your aqua clutches;
I know you will ultimately
get exhausted, sloth and slumber
with the approaching low tide;
when all your dutch courage
borrowed from boozy full moon
would be gone!
