Lisa Ricci Poet Free verse

Of the Sea For the Sea By the Sea

"of the sea for the sea by the sea"
softly and loudly
of the sea
I shall always speak
for her voice remains
time after time
for the sea
I enter with gratitude
grateful to witness glory
winter spring summer fall
by the sea
I will always be found
surrounded in wonderment
whether of for or by the sea
of the sea I share to infinity
for the sea I tread slowly
by the sea I look on forevermore

Darren White March 20, 2017 at 2:10 AM For me the sea is so incredibly important. I live near the sea, sometimes my sister takes me there, or even my psychiatrist does, and we speak there. It's easier for me to speak out there, with the sound of the waves, the salty fragrance, and at night those stars reflecting as little lamps in the water. Lisa Ricci March 20, 2017 at 10:44 AM Oh Darren. Hi. What a gift to receive your commentary of the sea as it pertains to you. How perfect is that. Very I say and think. Honestly. The sea makes everything easier. I live an hour away. I hope you liked my small effort. May the sea always be special for you as it is for me. Have a wonderful day and thank you again for such generosity Darren.

Chris Green March 18, 2017 at 5:56 PM There is always something so magical about the sea. It is as mysterious as it is romantic and beautiful. Your enchanting poem takes me there and allows me to hear the soothing cadence of the waves. Beautifully written Lisa. Lisa Ricci March 19, 2017 at 7:00 PM Good Evening Chris. Nice to see you.
