Waves the Water’s Made

Another strato-cumulus rumpled underbelly of grey cloud blanket, with wind from southwest; a cooler morning though still summer warm. The high tide line barely makes it over the frontline shoreline wall to the south end of the beachy bay. A smoothed cliff formation ridge which the advancing water has formed and run over to a higher tide line above, then formed again on the way out. The moon has been mid-sky these last days, neither peak north nor south, the tides sometimes two high or low in a day, pulled neither way out nor way up, while the water has been helped ashore by the onshore wind. Further north, towards middle bay the more straighline wall and cliff line of the south gives way to a rhythmic interplay of rising and then falling rhytmic ridges, the whole shoreline breathing here, the high tide line just up and over the peak of each little ridge, where slightly to the north west side of each brief rounded cliff lips appear again similar to the long line further south, where water has run up and over the ridge lip but here has also run along it and carved out a slight wave formation. The watery horizontal waves of the ocean forming, after they crash, the same in the sand. And we see here how all such rock formations are made by such a flowing, by such a snaking, including Kaarta-Kitj Wave Rock further inland.
