Quiet morning moment

The waves were crashing about ferociously as I walked along the beach early in the morning. As I rounded the point, I came across a moment of stillness, enjoyed by all. 
The pool was empty though a bather was considering jumping in.
The bird was airing her feathers and the ship silently waiting it's turn to move forward in the queue for the port.
The noise of the ocean, the wind and the birds all seemed to fall away, though maybe I just tuned them out?
“Silence is not the absence of noise, but the presence of something greater.”
― Dirk Hessel
