Salty Nature

Water splashes As it moves at night The color lost It takes on darkness A discolored form The salty nature Of the dark seawater Tastes horrid The strong feel That is lifted into place The pursed lips The silky sight of water In the stark night air It flows so smooth Through the waves tonight Pouring on itself

That second little stanza is awesome, Russell: it takes on darkness/ a discolored form. Interesting to focus on the saltiness of the sea!
