1.      For 20 years I lived a block off the Atlantic Ocean.  For 20 years I sailed all the 7 seas.  Mother ocean is my mother, and I know her well.  To this day I long for her embrace and I still hear her calling softly to me, whispering into my ear the song of the sea.  I will always have the wind in my sails and salt ‘neath my nails.  It’s been almost 6 years now since I have been upon her waters, yet I know her better than I know myself.  I am still hypnotized, mesmerized by my lady in blue.  One day I know I will heed her calls, and I will return to her warm and dangerous arms.  To sail her waters once more…forevermore.  

         Spread my ashes upon her waters…only then will I be home again.
