An ode to the sea

The beauty of the sea
is something I could never describe in a straight forward manner. After spending five days out my sense of awe  and wonder are sparked again. In this I seek to worship the creator not the created, by rejoicing in what he has given me, to God be the glory forever and ever. And with ought further ado
As she kisses me, ice run hot in my veins

With each stoke I call her name

This is the sea to me, how it should be

As I master her in the oaks of old

She fights against my will

Sending gales and storms in lieu of lovers poems

This is the sea to me, how it should be

Through battles won And battles lost I measure our years together

For I am not her first lover or her last

For she will endure forever

Her beck and call are my desire

And her serenity my reward

And if I should fall and falter she’ll hold me forever more

This is the sea to me, how it should be

So farewell my fair maiden 

Until we meet again

On this hard earth I walk, this is where I gather sin

But to you I shall return, in the hopes you’ve remained true

And if you’ve changed at all in the years past 

I’ll rejoice and start anew

At sea I am the captain, and my lady holds me tight

At night I contemplate here depths 

devoid of fear at spite

In the day I rejoice in her strength

Wether it be sunny or cold

For the though weather whether fair

Soon she will break her mold

This is my lover you see, she is the perfect lass

An ode to times yet to come

And a testament to times blown past

This is the sea to me, how it should be.

And a testament to times past
