FORTE

by Gay Reiser Cannon
(Port Aransas, TX)

Alone With The Sea

I stand at the top of the world
Feeling brave
The sea pulls on me
The clouds reach out
I sense them and feel strong
The cold surrounds
Rocks and seaweed
I am shielded
My body warm
The rhythm of the ocean
Keeps tempo with me
I want adventure
I yearn for the sea
Other creatures wait
Other needs abate
I am with the world
And I am brave.
