Best Salt Water Poems

When brainwaves strive against my need for sleep,
I exercise to help my mind calm down.
When pressures get so bad I want to weep,
I do yard work or jog a while through town.
A dear pet or a loved one's home going -
out come the tissues, dabbing...

Salt-water taffy is Atlantic City’s treat.
Known to many, it is both chewy and sweet.
This is an ever-popular type of candy
that has been around for over a century.

Pieces are wrapped in waxed paper individually,
and contained in boxes with varied weight and quantity.
Being something any visitor savors,

A thing so paradoxical, sin
So all encompassing it’s grasp
A curse of eternal thirst
though we are drowning.
Our hands desperately scratching for a life raft
Secretly made of the same water we drown in,
Our hearts repulsed by the light
So we continue our daily floundering
Chasing a trail of crumbs...

He stands in the rain

And looks out over the sea

Endless salt water 

Trickles down his cheeks as he

Remembers the love they had

Have you ever noticed how healthy you feel
after a swim in the ocean?
Would salt dissolved in warm water have the
same effect?
Table salt and warm water prevent infections.

'Thinking the sea and the sand and sun might set me free
But the hurt's the same, nothing's changed except for the scenery

This salt water...

Fragile is her heart, but with strength she stands,

Love is never her burden, soft are her hands.

With a smile she soaks up the tears,

A blanket of faith to cover her fears.

Forgiveness sits on the tip of her tongue,

Even if I've done the worst wrong.

She loves...

This hypnotic potion
a bottle of oceans
on necks which still sting
from the salt of the sea
is pulling me under
is raging like thunder
is threatening to pull
the whole world over me
I'm feeling quite queasy
It's suddenly easy 
to breathe underwater 
and dive
A potion from oceans
a stir, a commotion
and suddenly...

Water cleanse the stains away, I seek redemption here today

As I fall into this ocean blue, I ask for death to come from you

Pull me deep beneath your waves, so deep that I may not be saved

As I dive into this storm at sea, I...

Restless.
Gradual,
Haphazard,
Graced with the dexterity,
With jabs to its sides in the still wind,
With the dance of grey smoke from a pot of incense.
It breezes in the descending direction unto a platter. 

A mass of saltwater–as it'd find out later.
The roars of the tides,
The whistles of the...
