Ode to the Ocean

Oh the longing that the ocean brings
When you've lived upon its mighty waters
And felt the thunder of the wind and waves
Upon the bow

And the still and calm of twilight
When light bounces on the surface
And shadows on glass, so still, so quiet
Peaceful thoughts

Ever changing, never settling, ocean
Horizon never ending, open, free
There's a place I'd love to stand in that salt breeze
Oh to be.
