Welcome back to White Rose of Avalon, my Darlings. For today’s blog post, I am sharing a poem about the beauty of the beach.
Saltwater and Sea Spray
by Maranda Wabik
Standing at the shoreline
Feeling overcome by emotions sublime
The smell of Saltwater
Filling the air
The breeze rustling through my long hair
As the waves crash beneath my feet
I can feel the Sea Spray
Against my skin
Oh, how I wish my legs were a fin
Then I could swim in the Ocean
And be at one with the Mermaids
Who swim beneath the waves
That would be such a healing potion
It makes my Soul come to life
With joy and desires that are rife
Oh, maybe one day
I will be able to swim and play
In the Sea
With the Dolphins and Manatees as my friends
And the Mermaids as my Sisters!

A very nice evocative poem. I’ll copy it out. It’s a keeper! I love poems to do with the sea: the allure and mystery of the sea. My favourite such poem is ‘The Sea Bell’ by J.R.R. Tolkien. My favourite piece of music to do with the sea is ‘Sea Drift’ by Delius, in which he sets a section of Walt Whitman’s poem, ‘Sea Drift’ to music. Both of these are wonderful and evocative.
I am so glad that my poem spoke to you so deeply! I also love the works of Tolkien and Whitman, as well as anything having to do with the Sea. Thanks for reading and commenting!
