The cliff accepts the wave
It does not fight the wave,
But it does not crumble
It does not get angry at the wave
Its the nature of the wave to lash out
The wave is inevitable
Cannot be wished away
After the wave recedes
The cliff knows that the wave
Will be back
Its not fearful
Its not perturbed
It knows it has the strength
To face it again
