Anxious for the odor of a salty sea
Yearning for the sound of flapping sails
I set my heading to drift among
The whitecaps and the whales
Ocean waves gently slap my bow
As I lazily steer from the stern
A blending of the ocean sky horizon
Allow me a freedom of no concern
Relishing the feel of wind blown hair
Cool breezes against my skin
Sailing appears to be the answer
For amazing peace and calm within
