By the Sea-

BY THE SEA-
By the sea, by the sea I’ve never lived by the sea Though I’ve visited the west coast In an airplane I’ve seen up close The sea That day my soul grew offshore My heart rate and eyes didn’t ignore The waves of the water curl The ocean mist swirl When I think of the sea The morning dew drew This sea of dealt and distance Landing on the landing On that day my soul grew offshore Only this and a state I discovered the seafarers The sub ocean sailing siting Still is citing, still is citing Of the land's that is indicting The semisubmersible seashore sailing By the sea, by the sea I’ve never lived by the sea Though I’ve visited the west coast In an airplane I’ve seen up close The sea 6/7/21 Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.©2021
