Life Force

When my world is crazy and sad
Is when I seem to miss you so bad
In my minds eye I can feel and see
How you always center me

Your roar and thunderous sound
Penetrates my mind and drowns
Mindless worries of my life
Brings whats important to the light

Salty aroma refreshes me
Endless sky for me to see
Sun flickering off your surface
Bringing life, answer and purppose

Waves crashing, sandy shores
Seagulls flying, shells and more
So much power, so much untold
Oceans life force for all to behold

Oh man, how I love the ocean!!  And this is a wonderful poem about all the feelings associated with being there...excellent write...I love it!

I hopelessly, helplessly, wonder why
Everything gotta change around me
I’d tell it to your face,
But you lost your face along the way...
