The Ocean

Just an old poem I once wrote about the ocean.

My love the ocean,
Quench this fire,
My heart flows to thee,
My river of emotion,
Your soft cool breeze dries my tears,
I yearn to meet your horizon,
To taste your salty caress,
To heed your rhythmic whisper of thunder,
I yearn to bathe in your heartbeat,
To inhale your breath,
To feel your embrace ripple upon my soul,
And your sand like silk upon my feet,
Your song lifts my heart like a cloud,
Adrift upon your breeze,
To laugh like a mountain brook,
That merrily tumbles back to your shore
