Missing You

My missing you
never stops.

Not since    the beginning 
   when my eyes   first    saw
   your wide    almost infinite    expanse,
Not since   my ears first heard
   your angry roars   or    soft soothings,
Not since
your salty perfume    filled my spirit.

Blessed be I
to have made    your acquaintance,
oh ocean    dear ocean.
Blessed be I.

This is a beautiful write, Sarah - conjuring up all kinds of emotions for me. The ocean is wild and inspiring not only in physical reality but, for the poet, metaphorically. This is quite lovely :) [+fav]
