Sea Song I stood to watch the surf go out and to come back to shore with intensity covering all it could in liquid shout heard in words of vapor density it whispered stories old from forgotten seas the ocean holds echoes in its depths of accept where water knows walking with the breeze but never to reveal the secrets kept I’m not disappointed, I never expected anything from you.

The sea always in motion, never going anywhere.......but deep and brooding. Enjoyed |

it seems the sea's never stop moving with the waves this is true cause even when it is calm the tide continues to move A smile a day keeps the world in smile's. |

I stand on the shore smelling the salt in the air as I listen and hear the descriptions pour forth from your beautiful lips and I know the sirens sound will draw more sailors to the rocks for love is dangerous journey and I am a fool for your poetic style as are any who sail this sea of enchanted poems that you sing. Hey Helen good write Thomas AKA Rogue |

helen, Dependable. Like you. Excellent write. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

The tides of my memories, Washing out, Rip currents pulling at me, Dragging my soul far away, Pulling down, Emotions lost in the spray Of crashing waves on the beach, Nature’s shout, To ears my voice will not reach, Alone with my memories, In them drown My aspirations to be. Passing waves are battering, Pounding out, Untouched and not mattering Terra firma place to stand, Moves around And I find just sifting sands. Gloom |
