Do you know my friend
the sea
From Turkey to Patmos, Greece
he watches everything we do
Fisherman: Antioch, Turkey
you, rolling over
in your beach bank sleep
me, chasing seagulls
down the dunes.
you, your skirts held high
wading in the water.
English Bay: Vancouver, BC Canada
The lovers.
Those who go alone.
He sees them all.
My feet: Sea of Galilee
If we’re ourselves to know
we should get to know the sea.
Child wading: Victoria, BC Canada
Photographs and Memories 
Ahhh! The sea is my favorite place to be! It is my Happy Place! Absolutely love this! Thanks!
A soothing place … light breeze … lapping of the tide … birds flying … blissful
Absolutely! I wrote a poem about the ocean for a very sentimental reason. I posted it on my blog and the story behind it. Here is the link if you would like to read it. https://joyroses13.wordpress.com/2019/01/17/let-us-run/
The sea is a gift for us all, thanks for the reminder
Lucy 🙂
The sea brings us so many gifts such as whales, fishes, starfish and much more. Thank you, Lucy.
Nice water and nice words, too! Beautiful! 🙂
It’s amazing how the colours of the sea changes from one country to another. Thank you, Tk.
Actually, I hadn’t noticed that .. That’s an interesting fact! 🙂
Such soothing words, photos and video. You nailed this one my friend! Excellent!
Rod McKuen wrote the poem. And the photos are from travels.
Mahalo for sharing the beautiful video and the delightful photos with us.
Alaho, the video brought the pictures to life. Thank you.
Beautifully done – the music is perfect for your photos.
Yes, Tina. I have been waiting when I could use Rod’s song, finally. Thank you.
I know her very well. She is my friend too 🙂
Yes and you have all the lobsters, too. 😛
Such beautiful poetic words 🙂 I love the soothing sea in your pictures !
Thank you. It wasn’t soothing when we were on the boat on the way to Greece. 😛
It’s been so long since I’ve been to any sea – think it’s past time already. But I’ll get there again, one day.
Loved your pics P!
Don’t wait too long, Ms. g. Go as soon as the weather warms up.
