The Sea

It is my hearts desire

For my thoughts to be all tranquil and light

All harmony and bliss

And so the sea

So vast and pure

Is a source of comfort for me

If ugliness rears its ugly head

I simply think of the sea

And how each thought

Is only as significant

As a drop in the ocean

And it calms me down

And soothes the hurt

Of the brutality and banality of my world

The well I climb out of

A little further each day
