RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS
By the Sea
In solemn moments by the sea
I feel the spirits take hold of me
And there I sit to this very day
A prayer to take my soul away
The mists of ancient tears
Will wash away my inborn fears
The very heartbeat of the earth
Gives hope and wonder birth
The sea is where I always turn
When in my beating heart I yearn
To find a moment’s restful peace
All my worries to release
I count the waves in endless nines
Until my very core unwinds
And all the pain I’ve ever known
With the gulls away have flown
A part of me I leave behind
Each and every parting time
I promise to come back again
When the sea invites me in
