You have captured well the allure of the sea - it's true, once you have succumbed, you can never forget her...I think in some of us she invokes a 'genetic memory' of where we all came from...

You have done another wonderous - slightly secretive - sad and yet beautiful poem. I am in awe of your talent. God bless.
