The smell of the sea was more precious,
more lovely than that of a rose in spring
The sounds of the waves, real music
Mozart, Bach, never heard such a thing.
Turquoise blue and green and white surf
caressing so softly the view of my eyes
The wind on my skin, so sweet and soft
so tender and cooling, extraordinarily nice
I tried to smell, feel, hear and see
All at the same time, simultaneously
But this was really much easier said than done
When I looked and listened, the smell was gone
Focusing on smell and the breeze from the skies
gave me the sudden strong urge to close my eyes
I tried again and again to absorb the senses of the sea
And what was first two, became soon a wonderful three.
After some time I finally could sense all four
It felt like being one with the sea in my core
I felt and smelled and heard and saw
It really had me standing there in awe
I licked my lips and guess what...
I could taste some of the sea's salt
I really love and adore this sensational write. You literally took me to a place that I rarely visit, the seashore. The wind and the taste of the salty mists that wafts through the air. How very refreshing and revitalizing this must be. Nicely worded and expressed. Talented you are.
Watching the sea with the breakers continuously pounding the shores in thunnderous sound and of getting wet by the spray of salty water... an experience in itself! You have literally enmeshed and absorbed the sea in your being! A lovely write! !
This is so natural... each line shows us your talent... a beautiful heart you have....
The sea give spirit to adventure Nations born from this Tears too Good write my friend....good to taste the salt.
I can picture the scene, I live by the sea and it is nice to smell the waves and sea salt in the air. Lovely poem
What a pleasurable journey through out! Thanks for taking all of us a free ride, enjoyed reading. We all see the sea, but only few like you feel it.
A wonderful return to my favorite place. Being to old to get there anymore, this was a treat- thank you
