Brine in me veins...

Poem Artwork

Salt water within me does flow,

From the Atlantic Ocean it does help me grow,

None of that fresh water from a lake,

Only pure salted sea does of this man make…

 

 

Love the sea for all my time,

It’s made many for me a rhyme,

Yes seawater does within me run fine,

Sometimes, yes I still call it brine…

Our blood is 95% seawater. Proof that we crawled out of the sea. Salt is essential, but dangerous, part of our necessary diet.

So, we drink pee, do we? How else would you know that your pee is salty? I know, you read it somewhere, just like me, and tasted it just to make sure.

Sea salted water, not healthy to drink...but, sprinkled on
food for thought by Ed Matlack, clever indeed!

Love it, Ed. I lived by the ocean for 49 years myself. It is something special.

Wow! Brine is used to preserve fish, to age big smelly cheeses, and for pickling meat. I always knew you were fishy and cheesy, Bro, but I never knew you were pickled, too. This explains a lot; thanks.

As long as I am still here I'll comment, just won't post anymore.

I am a land lubber, me. I wound up working for a living in the Gulf of Mexico for quite a few years. I liked it, Storms and all.
