My Sparkling Sea

My Sparkling Sea

I found a sparkling sea meant just for me,

A place I was always meant to be,

Where I can soar or, I can fall,

Where I can do any THING at all,

A place where all my dreams are near at hand,

Waiting just beneath the sand,

My sparkling sea,

Where the waves wash strife away,

Where I can play all through the day,

Not seen through eyes of distorted view,

Where I am him, or her, or you

And though my sparkling sea was meant for me, 

I come to bring it now to you and, to see what with it will you do,

The sparkling sea was always there though it took me time to find it.

And how I adore the salty air and the crashing waves that bind it,

Where the sun passes soon making way out for the moon,

And sparkling still will be my sea by the day or by the night,

By brilliant sun or by pale moon light,

My sparkling sea
