An Ode to the Sea

The Sea, that welcomes me every year
as I plunge into her fold and glide within her fluid velvet

The Sea, that feeds me her tasty fruits
served on platters of seaweed and sea salt

The Sea, that washes away my body's stresses
and strengthens my muscles and my soul

The Sea, that brought the long tentacled creature
that left it's angry reminder across my arm

 The Sea, that makes my spirit soar

above and below

Enjoy!
