the sea
our eternal mother
so beautiful
and powerful
beyond imagination
we came from the sea
and crawled unto land
many years ago
still
we are mostly water
and so never really left
the mother
moist surf
cooling on a hot day
cold current
shocking at first
is soon irresistible
soft sand
massages
with every step
perhaps the best
is sunset
each one
unique
indescribably beautiful
spreading across ocean and sky
lasting for hours
with the evening star
luna comes
shining her magic
upon the vast darkness
glittering far into the horizon
but the end
of a beautiful day
signals the start
of an equally beautiful night...
with each divorce
comes the dreaded move
out of the family residence
an unwanted change for most dads
you should live
where you've always wanted to
to be happy and enjoy life
then change is welcomed
and time spent with your child
can be quality time
for you
and for them
time spent having fun
rather than missing mom
enjoying the clean, fresh air
watching the sea
ending sorrow
ending thought
