The wind is unforgiving
As it blows along the shore
The forces of Mother Nature
I've seen them many time before

The jetty is void of people
On this wild and windy day
The sky is dark and brooding
The sun struggles to shine a ray

The boats here in the harbour
Rise and fall with the tide
Their masts are well synchronized
Swaying together side to side

Here I am safe from the elements
Inside my vehicle I keep warm
As I look towards the horizon
And see the approaching storm

When I next come here to visit
A different image I will see
But never will I tire of
This beauty surrounding me

* * *

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Sue: I love the ocean and this poem really catured my attention. I live inland about 350 miles, but I go to the coast every chance I have. Loved the poem!

(sigh) Oh Sue, I live almost in the middle of America far from any ocean but I love it so much and dream of living near it as I always feel amazed sitting there! (kiss on cheek) This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
