Drink a Slice of Sea

Go to the sea if you feel slight
On a blue draped dreamy night
When the sliver disc of the sky 
Dances with the sea on the sly
Riding silent waves rising high
Reach the moon you would try
Cut slice of still sea on its side
Like the birthday cake liquefied
Drink to celebrate time you got 
Someone for you has brought.

The sea would enter you serene
With a piece of moon's silver sheen
That sparkles broken on the wave
A dear birthday gift you can have
And save in your heart’s recess
The waves would drive in pulses
Blue blood in cascading arteries 
And transmit harmonic melodies
To the heart that would beat in glee
With the rhythm of the dancing sea
You would invent an abode to reside	
Hear songs someone singing inside 
For you would be lifted above
The rolling waves silent in love.
