Pending Storm (To Inspire)

As I walked along the shore With thoughts that brought an emptiness to a heart That once beat within the soul of a young sailor At one with the elements Without mercy As though seeking vengeance for an unnamed wrong And again I felt the chill of another battle looming In the distance But a smile lashed out gripping a face That knew that the taste of victory was mine Seeing only the beauty Of the ocean and Feeling her strength As my legs carried me toward The eye of the pending storm. Thank you Larisa for the inspiration.
