In the shallow end of the ocean, sunlight scatters in ways that create colors and textures and tones that don’t exist anywhere else.

In the shallow end of the ocean, the winds shape the water’s surface, endlessly creating new lenses through which we can get a glimpse.

In the shallow end of the ocean, waves end their journey of thousands of miles by crashing into the beach. Whether that’s a glorious or inglorious ending is up for debate.

In the shallow end of the ocean, life is created and lost in a cycle we call never-ending, but isn’t really.

In the shallow end of the ocean, we get to visit on occasion, but it’s clear we don’t belong here.

Still, in the shallow end of the ocean, we’re welcome to peer in from well above and wonder about all the things we can only imagine are playing out beneath the mysterious waves.
