Where I Belong

I long for Her deep dreamy blue She is forever calling my name At times She is a smooth calm And at times She shows no shame Mapping out directions of mass Her currents changing with her moods Taking a prisoner at Her own will Supplying Her own nourished foods The aromas of Her salty froth And the sea nectar from Her lip I am addicted to Her scents Tantalizing me with Her tight grip She's richer than earth's black soil Holding the treasures one has lost Plundering king's jewels by Her depth Many lives Her hands have tossed She will show no given mercy Mocking towards the fragile earth Nothing existing can break Her will New erosion She forever will birth I cannot show Her my inner fear To Her empowering fight I will cast my soul fathoms deep Down in Her secret kept light She will give the invite soon As She awaits my final send She and I will unite as one Alas, on Her, I can depend She gently holds the moon and the stars Commands daily the wind and the sun Mother Ocean was created by God Eternity's prize She has won
