Ocean's Rites
The Earth rotates around …spins
The moon carries its own power
The ocean, it focuses on
Seeking the meek, lighthouse tower
The waves are created …splash
We play within the froth and foam
Lowering myself to its side
I know its love within the zone
Into the sea the sky …reflects
Makes the waves a romantic blue
Entranced I follow the shoreline
There is no greater love than you
The heavens and with them …power
And the ocean lives with its own
I carry along with me strength
To survive when the Earth does groan
Spins, the world moves for life loved
Splash, the oceans crash for desire
Reflects, thinks of ancient days past
Power, holds enough to quench fire
