that i long to see the ocean.
I hear her calling me when the winter wind blows.
Today.... I was there...though not really.
Miles away from the salty ocean air,
a seagull hovered above and perched upon a rooftop.
And, like the wind that calls me to the shores of the playful sea....
a seagull reminded me of the days i've spent there."

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing!
Beautiful! Many years ago I lived up north on Lake Michigan, it was my first experience of the lake in winter and the enormous crashing waves and beauty of its fierceness captured my heart. I would love to go back there and see it again. Thanks for the memories and the beautiful poem! Theresa xoxo
