“Land is the secure ground of home, the sea is like life, the outside, the unknown”
Stephen Gardiner
Rocky Road
A sunny day in June
The sea and sky, painted in blue
A view reserved, only for a few

“Nothing burns like the cold”
George R.R. Martin
Frosted Forest
The snow was slowly floating
The trees with a powdery white cloaking
Like a sugar candy coating
As Mother Nature watched gloating
“Look how pretty I made it!
I don’t care one shit,
If the humans don’t see the fit.
It’s pretty and clean,
Most gorgeous thing they ever seen!
So what if it is freezing cold
And the ever rising wind blows!
Better suck it and enjoy,
For this, is my utter ploy!”
And so the little minions of Earth
Went forth in both fear or mirth
After all, how long could it be before the birth
Of summer

“Many a calm river begins as a turbulent waterfall,
yet none hurtles and foams all the way to the sea” Mikhail Lermontov
Seaside
In the far away land
Where ever your camera pans
Seashores covered with sand
Mountains tall will stand
The bluest of seas command
What could be more grand

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water”
Rabindranath Tagore
On the Rocks
Against the smoothed rocks
Is the water happily splashing
High in the air go flying my crocks
When I’m barefoot in the sand dashing
Close to the water’s edge
I once again my allegiance pledge
Wowing, this year my toe to dip
Even if it means biting the lip
Come high hell or cold water
Because it may never get hotter
In the ocean I will swim
Even if my eyesight will dim
After all, it is Spring Time!
