Mother Ocean

I walk the steep stairs to the ocean, I am excited, this is where I belong

I feel the cool sand between my toes, here I am free

The waves are like a monster, but I’m not afraid

She comforts me

The sound of the waves is her song

Somedays I sit on the hill overlooking the ocean, and listen to her

When I stand on the edge of her waters I let my roots sink into the ground

Here I can hear all the animals join her ongoing anthem

When I’m here I feel like I belong, like I am home.
