The Sea
A Poem by
Marie Harrison
A wavy poem.
The Sea
Oceans of water
Flow over me
Royal blue as far
As the eye can see
Treasures
Tucked beneath
Jewels for
Curing the body
Food to
Fill the belly
Salt to give
Life season
Cool liquid to
Restore a sense of peace
Joy that brings people
Together to enjoy the sea
Take me back to the sea,
To my humanity
The sea gives
Me back my sanity
Unending are the waves
Of the tumultuous sea

The sea has wonderful healing powers... as well as being able to destroy in its rough embrace

Just beautiful Marie. It is calming, healing, abundant and sometimes we can catch a mermaid or two, if we wait long enough.
The sea gives me back my sanity, I have to agree.
Like the tide at its ebb
I'm at peace in the web
Of your arms.
Those lyrics to the song "Ebb Tide", are what came to mind as I read your piece.

Everything is there in the sea that people need to exist, in spirit and in body. Nice job.
