The Sea Is Calling

THE SEA IS CALLING

Ian was a young viking warrior, sailed upon the sea
Ocean was his first love, would not set his heart free
The maiden loved him dearly  was her moon and sun
Waiting at the ocean's edge till each sunset had begun

One day the sea was swirling, viking ship blown around
Llightning flash from Heaven, a deadly cracking sound
The ship caught fire and was far away from shore
Warrior knew the end near, he watched the fire roar

Always to be with his love, the ship sank into the sea
Sea was his first love, now he was with hers eternally
Maiden sits and waits for him, to returnon evening tide
They would never marry, nor beconme his blushing bride

The years past by very slowly, maiden never loved again
She went to the ocean's edge, watched as tide rolled in
Waited for the fading sunset, then walked into the sea
Tide took her out that night, to lover beneath the sea

    Wonderful write here.

    This is very sad and carries a deep message about love never ending. One that I found to be very heartwarming as well. You sure put a lot of effort into what you write here. I do wish you the best of luck in this contest. It reminds me of a Garth Brooks song along the same theme.

    Thank you so much my friend. Reading your fantasy poem the other day inspired me to take a stab at this poem. It was kind of fun to write and get my mind off something that had nothing to do with me. So many of my poems are of me and my feelings, past and present. It felt great to forget for a while and have a little fun in fantasy land Well you take care my Sunshine Annie. Thanks for the everyday smiles I get from your comments. God Bless. Take care, Sandy

    Pozo, I really thank you for the wonderful comment. It feels good sometimes to write about fantasy, things that have nothing to do with my life. Most of my poems are and it feels great to get away sometimes. I hope all is well with you. I know I don't get to comment and read your poems as I use to. I will read some today. I was up till one the other night trying to get caught up. Take care my friend. Jason says hello. He doesn't get on as much either. Well you take care my friend and God Bless you. Love, Sandy
