Ocean Waves

In perfect rhythm A gently flowing ballad Perfect melody Tugging at my heart Softly lifting my spirit Tickling my senses A song of beauty Calling to the universe To maintain all life Everlasting tune Beckoning for all to see Shimmering with hope Singing out for peace In harmony with the wind Conducted by God Copyright © 2009 Lena “Lolita” Townsend

Nothing like the ocean. I remember sitting with my daughter when she was eight one night on the Virginia Beach boardwalk until about 1AM just watching the ocean. Congrats on the feature. Vince

I like Lolita better...Good write but I must have missed the boat or the bait, however I do have the creative ability to step in ur shoes and see through ur eyes. This one I would build my own universe with by adding more imagery.... AR

I would have to agree... Living in Florida and now on the Eastern seaboard of Delaware I see the ocean almost everyday.... Good write, well worth the feature.....:JP]
