A Seafarer’s daughter 💕

A Seafarer’s daughter 💕

As I elevate myself
on a rugged random rock
Listening to the melodies 
of the meandering tide

Fixated as the Kittiwake
swoops in a frenzy
Accuracy and precision 
with his mouth open wide

Roaring success, 
this aquatic being, 
A master of the Ocean
A dweller of those coastal shores

A native of the swell
Skimming and scavenging
when it has a notion
Dipping and diving, 
In his domain he knows so well

Never feeling hunger, 
always in command
A Seagull on a mission
scenically scouring it’s land

Such a heavenly existence
Wild expanse roaming free
with an abundance of fish
forever swimming
in that deep blue sea

A sudden crash and a 
splurge of a raging breaker
Escapes me from my trance 
staring at the gull

I pause, and I wait 
for the timing 
It is ebbing
My desire to leave this rock
soon as there is a lull

Goodbye my landscape
I thank you for your welcome
With your splendorous sea mirages
hues of blue and green

I will return 
at every opportunity
Being a seafarer’s youngest daughter
Briny salt in my childhood
Nature’s vision so serene
