Yes the ocean speaks to me too....I wish I was there right now...I need it so bad!!
But it is cold and rainy and very dark outside now...so I guess I have ti talk to myself now...!

Love
Tinka

I felt this in the depths of my soul. I still long for the rhythm of the ocean and your words remind me of that longing.

Beautiful. Something about water, the ocean or a sea. Very calming to the soul.

"...shhhh
listen
hear me i am the sea i am the wind
the sand on which you lay
i touch your forehead here
and wipe the furrow of life
the rhythm of the tide is mine
there is comfort strength
belonging
here
shhhh
listen
know
that we are one
that
you are loved special
adored for who you are
cradled here
in my arms
sweet child
i will never let you go
shhhhh
hush
now"

MOVE OVER!! i wanna be where you are right now...my furrows are deep ones!

the ocean does have that calming effect on a person. love it! when we were nearly 18, we went to philadelphia, pa., to visit our older sister, and we went to the atlantic ocean; and the sound of the surf and the waves was asthetic and calming. very soothing to the mind and soul. i will always remember that sound of the water, and i always have loved that sound of the ocean. wonderful write, josie dear!
