Mistress of the Sea

Song of the waves beckon the heart calleth, deep unto deep captive mistress of the sea This poem is dedicated to the fisrt time I saw the ocean. I watched the sun rise over the Alantic Ocean. I remember I stood there looking over the ocean, and it seemed as though the whole world held its breath, and then the sun came up! I was her captive from that moment. by Lori McClure

Reminds me of a Moody Bliues tune - "Voices in the Sky" where the singer intones that "I lie awake with the sound of the sea calling to me" Peace & Blessings Matthew Anish
