It's cold and the wind
Is howling along the coast,
The smell of the ocean
Hangs in the air
And the sound of
Rustling eucalyptus trees
Bending in the breeze.

There’s a lone surfer
In the cold Southern Pacific
Ocean in a black wetsuit,
In communion with the sea
And at one with the waves
And nothing else matters
To him at this moment.

He rides the wave
All the way to the shore,
The light’s beautiful right now,
And I have this wild Australian winter
Beach all to myself to witness the power
And majesty of the sea.
