The Calling Of The Sea When the moonlight on the water sparkles beautiful and bright On a clear warm summer evening underneath a starlit night Across the dark deep waters I can hear her speak to me A soft and mellow whisper is the calling of the sea She blows her cool and salty breath lightly through my hair Her waters move so gracefully she captivates me there She wraps me sweet and softly in her golden arms of sand And reaches out her white capped waves to take me by the hand A dark seductive beauty that draws every sailor home They hear her love song calling from wherever they may roam No seaman can resist her charms so beautiful and pure And many are the men who fall in love with her allure As I stand here close beside her and watch her waters foam I know that I am at the place that always will be home She knows that she can find me no matter where I’ll be And I always will be drawn here by the calling of the sea |

When the avalanche of it is on me too deeply and I can't seem to dig my way out...sometimes the sea rescues me. Just to stand on the damp salt sand while the waves surge and join and surge again...I need that. Thank you for taking me there. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
