She sat on the beach watching her children playing in the surf. She knew they were perfectly safe but also knew the dangers of the water all too well. Her husband sat on the sand next to her, his arm around her shoulder comforting her and making her fee...
Hartland Quay, North Devon. A place of absolute beauty. On a sunny summers day, with the tide gently splashing over the rocks, it is hard to imagine anything but a tranquil, restful scene. At low tide, however, there is much evidence of the destruction th...
As I sit upon the ancient sandWith the faithful sun aboveMy eyes relax in hypnotic calmAs the sea laps with eternal loveSwashing waves of tendernessPush up the satin shoreGentle hands of massageWhich glide down again once moreComfort's sigh infusesAs the...
For all her infant life and some way beyond, Jane hated the sea. It was always there in all its forms lapping gently at the rocky shores of Clyth, like some friendly faithful dog, or giving a harvest as generous as a fertile field. Yet Jane believed tha...
“Mermaids, Kelpies, Harpies,” he muttered. “Superstitious fools.” The old fisherman was motoring his dory out of the harbor. “They blame the lack of skill on make believe creatures.” Fishing had been down recently. Soon the fisherman had his 200 hook...

The lighthouseThrough the qualm of my sailor’s journey, not one to be found, but rather subjected to the blue presence of an endless horizon. My deck meanders and forks as the high tide sweeps the journeyman into ambiguity. One can find solace in the hear...

The great blue sea So endless, And free The deep blue sea Millions of miles Wide and deep One would get lost If wandering too far But would that be Such a bad thing? I would not think so It would give me time To admire all that is Around me The...
The night that I was by the sea,I heard the sea speak to me. The night that I sat by the waves Watching the moon rise red, The night that the waters were splashing Making me listen to them, The night that sea tried to wake me Washing away my impurity, The...
So soft and still the mist rolls in todayAcross the sea, it touches lovers there Who meld beside the beach and on the bay.They taste the lust that only trust lays bare. A fairy dust that fell upon them bothHas given to their voices magic tone,And makes ea...
