The Ocean


"both wild and calm, dangerous and beautiful"


Something I am really drawn to is the Ocean – this mass of water is a wonderful thing to watch and to listen to. Have you ever sat in the twilight of the day at the shore – let your soul wander, and wonder what secrets are hidden under all of it? All the beauty, all the beast living in the deep of the sea unknown to humankind. Wondering till the last ray of sunlight disappearing behind the horizon. If you are lucky or were thoughtful enough to plan ahead the full moon rises that same night and you can continue watching the play of light and water.

THE OCEAN
by Victoria Elizabeth

Upon the crest of a wave I see
hidden memories held within.
New ones created, from every bough
on every ship, that travels bound

for some new pasture.
Such hope and yet such loss,
is the ocean's promise.
It's force men think can be tamed.

Yet that is what the ocean
wants you to believe.
It can bite and snap,
or it can be calm and cool.

A million promises made,
and broken upon it's shores.
A billion memories made
and broken, lying on it's floors.

The ocean is natures untameable force.
