![painting of a reef in the ocean, seen from above, in an helicopter, by Samuel Rondiere a.k.a. Sam Elka](https://ghostonthewindowpane.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/reef-copie.jpg)
a shadow in the waves, a persistent spot of foam,
any break in the pattern of the sea
might give away an hidden rock
reef under the surface
