Edgar,

So...does your statement below mean if you don't understand it correctly it's 
not a nice quote?  The sea foam is a metaphor for illusion.  It's something 
that has been churned up, appearing for a short time to be something separate 
from the sea, a dualistic set of sea:foam.  I think you've ignored the last 
line:

"And when the sea sends word each foaming body [illusion] melts back to 
ocean-breath."

...Bill!
