A spiral shell within a sea of sound.
Waves crash within the shell, bouncing off
the hard smooth walls.
Sound flows within this spiral, and mimics the motion of the ocean, and
brings the symphony of the sea to any waiting ear
that holds it to their ear.
This symphony is written by the surrounding sound waves that fill our air.
We can become the prisoners when we hold this resonance too close.
Stand back and away from the shell for awhile.
Let your heart and mind contemplate with reason.
My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2025. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
