A mountain tis just a grain to climb, compared to climbing a grain of lies.

 Singing at Sea

Sittin' at the end of the dock,
Feet dangling,
Toes wiggling,
Singing,

Cleanse this aching heart of mine,
Wash away these lies,
Salt in wound will heal in time,
Bury pain at sea.

Crafted with all the right details at the right place, to form a whole picture. I love the final lines:
"Salt in wound will heal in time,
Bury pain at sea."
lovely truth and lovely sound.

I find your poem expressive and deeply meaningful; I can "feel" what you express via your verses, Christine. It is good that, in spite of lies and the aches, you find a way to sing. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you,

A beautiful warm healing sea picture Christine!
Let the soothing sea take it all away, a cleansing is it's cure for
what ails your soul!
I can relate to the depth felt here!
DOCK OF THE BAY by Otis Redding, is my all time FAVORITE SONG! I get excited and have to dance, all is well - when I hear it!
Even better when near the ocean of healing!
BE well and STay Positive! My friend...
WRITE ON!

The ocean is suh a magical place for so many. A wonderful place to walk along, think and sometimes God willing we will also find the answers to those questions we seek, beautiful, heartfelt writing....

Let the sea take your worries away. Just being near it takes mine away. I let them freely fly away with the waves and try to be more possitive when I go away from the ocean back to my home. Nothing can cure the blues like a sightful of the ocean and ships moving along on it too. Life does go on and we are forgiven our sins and cleansed each and every day.

The sea always has been a receptacle for heartache's tears. Many a man has signed on in the Navy to get away from a love gone wrong and many a maiden has shipped or been shipped away to get over love lost. Your poem captures the spirit of the compassionate sea so well.
