The Sea CeasethA Poem by Gan DoI now live in the country and paddle my surf ski in an inland river and dream of surf from another time 🐳THE SEA “The sea ceaseth and it sufficeth me”. A tongue-twister passed on From my grandfather to me. But the sea doesn’t cease And the Surf does suffice. So where is the point Of my grandpa’s advice My toes in the sand Feel the titillate tide Surging and urging, an Ebullient bride - Calling me in from the land To the sea, Resistance removed, by lover’s decree. I lie in the rip That takes me from shore Into the arms of my Mistress, My w***e. If Pa was still here, I’d have to cajole It’s not the cease but the swirl That suffices my soul... ©️ Gan Do 2017 🐳 © 2017 Gan Do |
