THE MARITIMER AND THE SEA
I am the deep blue of the deep blue
I dance inwardly
crashing white frothy spirals on the shoreline
bringing life
and death
I hold in abeyance
the fish in the sea, coral, wet fauna and leviathon
they come and go at my bidding
to take or be taken, to feed or be fed
as is my deep blue whimsey
Enhaling, I take back what I give
burying deep beneath trenches my treasures
to be found by explorers of the deep
lest they
Upon my watery crest , riders of the storm
Fearlessly sail, valiant where others fear to tread
yet so reckless as to push my watery bounderys
where they will surely perish, yet they care not
it is I Immortal
Who deeply cares for the maritime soldiers
they who love me more than life itself
they who war with my water and winds
It is I, who value the courage it takes to ride high
on the perils of my indigo waves
not by choice, but by a need so strong
The Maritimer would perish without it
with a love for me so deep
my pulse is their pulse
without them
I would be here to time indefinate
to live forever with only the ebb and flow
the fish and coral and fauna
and of course the great leviathon
for to me
they are as awe inspiring to watch
as I am to them
