As Old As The Sea
As Old As The Sea
Deep and mysterious
With an endless roar
Lies the ancient sea
With its’ mystical lore
Eternal, boundless Sea
What creatures you hold
You harbor such secrets
Rich stories you’ve told
Both complex and moody
In storm or breeze
Showing a Clear blue face
Man sails across with ease
Deep within its depths
Lay cradle and grave
A final resting place
For the seafaring brave
This actually came in third place in the May 2010 Voicesnet poetry contest.
