The Ocean

Her waves reach out,

Gentle as a mother's embrace,

She is my home, 

Salt in my mouth, 

My eyes burn, 

Yet I am still here, 

Stormy nights, 

Her waves crash violently,

Foghorn bellows, 

The moon shines, 

How majestic,

Frightening and powerful she appears,

The evening sun, 

On the horizon, 

A ripple of water, 

Beneath my feet, 

Here I gaze at you again,

For one more time, 

Forever wonderstruck.
