Sapphire blues glisten in tandem
and quiet frostbitten shadows dance
while enchanted by the moon's light
seeking their once child-like innocence
I quiver in the knowing of the sun
it's inevitably to become non-existent
wondering if it watches the world
understanding our eventual similar end
Is the ocean and it's untamed nature
just its own version of a wild tantrum
raising uncontrollable waves with ferocity
saying it refuses to be taken as a prisoner
Does a sunrise know a moment will come
when it will have a last day to share
one more beautiful portrait of colors
and will the setting of it be like fireworks
Whether it be in the near coming future
or for us lifetimes and light-years away
eventually time itself becomes elusive
so look up at the stars with reverent awe

"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

What a beautifully serene yet also wild poem. I especially love the line “Does a sunrise know a moment will come when it will have a last day to share one more beautiful portrait of colors”. Well done on the imagery.
Does a sunrise know a moment will come when it will have a last day to share - lovely...great question. Great pic.
Wonderful words and the picture and first line drew me in
