I find myself down by the Sea so many emotions waiting to be free Needing to feel nothing if only for a while here by the water looking for my smile The overcast sky seems to understand offering me the rain I love as a helping hand A strong wind blowing soothing this heart I bare crying out emotions I came here to share As rageing waves crash down each one seems to say slow down my child all will be okay Healing water rushes back and forth and all around in all my glory at the ocean my smile once again is found.  -SEA- |

Netswan~ I don't live in Seattle, down in California. I'm actually in the mountains now, I used to live a stone's throw from the ocean, it always heals me. Glad you liked this-thanks.  -SEA |

excellent as always Sea, you do such a great job writing about your love--the waters of ocean and sea... very nice. jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving How one move just puts me by myself There you go just trusting someone else Now I know I put us both through hell ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me And I'm not sayin We ever had the right to hold on I just didn't wanna let you get away from me. ~MB20~Leave |

Sea you write my emotions I need to go there, to forget, to let the raging waters calm and bring smiles again. This touched me deep down today! Thank you! I think I will go find some serenity in the yard today if I can find a moment. |

~Sea,...I loved this. I too have gone to the ocean to find this....if this is what you have done and not a metaphor  Anyhow,..it's great writing...heartfelt and uplifting knowing you found your smile. I recently wrote a poem called "secrets" in the dark room...it has similarities. (SP) |

This is lovely Sea...what better place for a woman named Sea to go for relaxation and healing than to the sea. I love walking on the sand, and swimming, and diving, and sunbathing. James |

There is definitely something about the sea, isn't there. I, too, spent a number of years , and only minutes from the ocean and never tired of it. Now I live close to the Gulf and it's just not quite the same as the ocean, the Pacific (been around the Alantic too) Ocean in particular. Nice poem...brings back memories. No matter where I may roam Or wherever I may be, The sea, the sea, The beautiful sea, Will always be my home... j. |

Beautiful poem Sea!! I have yet to even see the ocean  some day...some day for sure!~Kelly Reflect upon your present blessings-of which every man has many-not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. ~Charles Dickens We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill |

SEA - this was wonderful. I am originally from Maine, but now live in the Midwest. This makes me think back to those great days on the shore... Joanna What better way to become immortal than to wake up each day and write? Ray Bradbury |
