Our Sea
We had arrived to board our ship,
a mysterious adventure to be,
I felt completely immersed.
On this voyage our vessel
was the center of all things
and the sea the universe.
This journey was all in my past,
but I still remember fondly
waves, seagulls, decks, cabins, and portholes.
The salty breeze, shaddy sun and shaky sealegs
will forever be ingrained in our souls.
My brothers and I had daily adventures
on all the decks,
but it was the forbidden areas
I will never forget.
We would climb up and down ladders
into small passage ways,
would give me a terrible fright today,
but back then it was fascinating
with no regrets.
When this wonderful passage was ending,
I didn’t realize then
how much this journey would be transcending.
So now I’m much older
and much wiser you see,
but I would certainly give that all up
for one day back at our sea.
