Wanderer Above The Sea Shore By The Moonlight

Description

Description

Lured by the tranquility of the dark blue sea and the silvery moonlight, the wanderer stares from above. Immersed in this tranquility, his mind is clear and fresh, all senses awakened and alert. The moonlight unwillingly guides the wanderer to the unknown seascape. A chill is sensed before the cheek can feel the gust of wind; before the ear can hear the hurling waves; before the eyes can catch the soft glow of foamy waves cutting across the dark, sharp rocks. The wanderer is awestruck by the tension of tranquility in the air against the persistent chaos of the sea. The eyes neither lie about the imminent perils, nor fail to reassure that the wanderer is at a safe distance from the wraths of nature. Recouped from the suspense, he gazes at the smooth shimmering sea, and can only ponder what lies beneath the depths of the distant, calm sea. The wanderer realises that it is the darkness that veils precariousness and the lightness that brings him fright. Yet, he is still captivated by the endliess transience of energy in layers of soft glow.
