The Sea

The sea calls to me from afar,
and my heart yearns to go.

Sparkling blue, foamy white caps roll onto the shore,
lapping at my toes as I long to jump into the wondrous blue.

Wishing to be a part of a world,
where weightlessness suspends
the body between land and sky.

I ride the currents that slowly pull me to them
like the beckoning arms of a Lover.

Imagination takes me
as the waves roll higher,
pulling me out slowly.

Delight overcomes me
as my mind goes
dancing with Dolphins
amidst the laughing blue.

Like a careful lover,
it turns, returning to its place
with a last silken caress,
awaiting our next embrace.
