Sea of Dreams

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I can hear the sea
It is ebbing to and fro
Rhythmically rocking me to sleep
In God’s own cradle

I long to be beside the sea and let it rock me..Didn't get there this year..Enjoyed reading your work..Thanks for dropping by..I found a little answer about the female cat roaring when they are calling their young, the male of the pride are two incidences when they would roar..Sara

We are on a week break away from it all - NO contact with home - I need a total break as I know tough times are ahead:-( Thanks for the answer to your question. Hugs Jan xx
