Under Frothy Waves
Surfers Soaring
Above Watery Graves
Parasails Swirling
Born on Sea Breezes
Beachgoers Laughing
As Time Freezes
The Ocean . . .
Does as it Pleases

Love the poem…:)
Thanks, PiP!
I’ll be looking for your submission.
I wonder if seasick can be used to mean sick FOR the sea?
Oh, I miss it today, Nancy. beautiful poem.
Thanks, Kate.
I grow homesick for the sea when I cannot hear its heartbeat.
Love the poem, so longing for the ocean …
Something special about being seaside . . . unless, like Carl, you get seasick. 🙂
No thanks. I have to take motion sickness pill to go into the bathtub.
Miami is wasted on you. 😛
I like the poem, Nancy. It’s a very pleasant read. I really like your last lines:
The ocean
Does as it pleases
We’ve seen the ocean misbehave.
I miss relaxing on the beach watching all those activities in your verse and the ocean with sunbeams dancing on its waves.
Thanks, Carol Ann. Glad you enjoyed. I am at my happiest when close to the sea.
I love your poem! 😎
The ocean always me feel so alive, I could watch it for hours.
Thanks, Barb. Me too.
Our first time to Acadia National Park (in Maine) we sat on the rocks above the sea for hours doing nothing but watching the waves pound against the shore.
Mesmerizing . . .
Lovely poem, Nancy. It catces the mood beautifully as does the photo. Love the peaceful sea…
Thanks, adee. I enjoy wild crashing thundrous waves too . . . but not tsunamis.
Love that last line.
Me too. I kept changing the ending until that last line arrived. I nodded.
Love those roiling waves teasing that kayaker… 🙂

I want to kayak on the Gulf of Mexico, and ride up and over the undulating waves.
Lovely image and lines, ocean tying all together while doing exactly as it pleases – yeah, love the final lines
Thanks, Ruth. I’m glad I stuck with it until that last line appeared in view.
