Ocean
the ocean
will never lie still
her salty breath
moving in and out
sometimes smooth as silk
other times with the rage
of a lion
in calm or storm
we must never doubt
her ferociousness
"i need the sea because it teaches me." Pablo Neruda

The author encourages honest critique.
This is a moving poem, literally and emotionally. I can sense the rolling waves, taste the salty air since it's so vividly crafted. Reminds me of an ocean of tears. Beautiful, JeJE! And the attached phrase by Pablo Neruda is perfectly chosen!
