The Ocean Breathes

Standing beside her to seek her horizon,

Struck by her aire of august majesty,

Watching the cadence of white-capped migration,

The rise and the fall as she strives to be free.

 

But freedom forbids her to glide past her borders,

Confined as a victim of proclivity,

Trapped by the steeliness of gravity and

Shaped by the odd folds of geography.

Slowly she rises in vaporous billows

To sky above mountains, rivers and plains.

Offering nurture to land-loving presence,

Her cycle facilitates life-giving rain

While deep in her catacombs giants roam freely

To feast on her sustenance unceasingly.

Teaming with buoyant, benevolent bounty

That seems to reach far beyond eternity..

 

Witness her lifeforce,

Marvel her wonders,

Sing her a song so sweet no one conceives

Of the beauty she bears,

The glamour she wears,

The wonders she shares

As she rhythmically breathes.
