i memorize the color of the sea
wrap it up and store it
in a subterranean treasure chest
safe and secure
ready for the day
that i need its cobalt elixir
to bleed into the dull and formless gray
of ordinariness.
wafting up from the depths
the soft succulent breezes
kiss my face with sweetness
and energize my very essence
reminding me of now and then
and here and there
and the oneness of it all
have you ever been introduced
to the power of the pacific?
Oh Patty, those pictures are gorgeous. I do love the Pacific and I feel blessed to live so close to it. This ocean has so many different moods, I never get tired of it.
ReplyDeleteThe Pacific I think, lends itself to having a love affair. It invites you, entices you and finally at sun set, or sun rise, or on the tip of a big wave, or the sound of the surf, you surrender. In love forever. Gorgeous photos Patty. And your words ... sigh!
ReplyDeleteI love the pacific ocean. At the top of NZ we can see it merge with the Tasman - it is quite breathtaking.
