Poetry: The ocean

The ocean, the sea,
So vast large and blue.
It's the only hurdle,
Between Me and You.

So full of salt,
Just a stretch of brine.
It's all that stops you
From forever being mine.

The current, it stops us
At ever turning.
To keep us apart,
To fill us with yearning.

I'd swim the distance,
And walk it twice.
For only when your in my grasp
Will my need suffice

So take a run,
And catch a flight,
For it's in my arms,
You'll sleep tonight

    OCEAN

    The oceans are great and wide.
    Boundaries where land does slide.
    Deep waters in harbors round.
    Giant waves all earthy bound.

    THE STORM FRONT

    The gulls screech and scream
    Swooping above the cliff top
    While white horses ride the waves below
    As the tidal
