I watch as the golden rays sink slowly beneath the horizon, <br />The shimmering light dances across the mirrored surface. <br />The lazy lapping on the etched sand draws me onwards, <br />As I stare fixedly at the strange eddying occurring just out of reach. <br />The sea seems to change and put on a new hat, <br />The languid waters now start to roil and toil. <br />The waves roar against the rage of the storm moving inland, <br />The sound of the ocean beckons for someone to play. <br />As dawn motions and the soft touch of the golden man touches my face, <br />My blurred vision slowly clears. <br />The sea is no longer roaring with intense anger, <br />It's alluring call is whispering soft words. <br />I am no longer afraid, I live….I love.<br /><br />Aaron Wright<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-sea-106/
