Tides in the morning

Light and gay,

Swirling in the oceans

Come what may.

Tides at noon

Reaching great heights,

Teasing and frolicking

A surfer's delight.

Tides in the evening

Cool and hued

Waiting for the kids

To make castles in sand.

Tides at night

Calm and serene,

Whispering soft lullabies

To the sailors in dreams.
