Take Me to the Sea

I’ve been busy these past two weeks working on two sea inspired paintings. One as a commission and one for you to buy..and I remembered that I wrote a poem that might explain why I am drawn to the sea (see below).

Sometimes a poem can say more than a painting, and sometimes vice versa! There’s plenty more poems and short stories in me. I am like a creative tank with different taps, releasing expression as I see fit!

Remember that all my standard depth original canvases are reduced until 31st January.

Thank you for reading xx

Take Me to the Sea

Take me to the sea

And let me be lost

In divinity

Let all thoughts dissolve

And evaporate.

 

Take me to the sea

Have my tears be soothed

And met in salty essence.

Have my soul quieten,

Uneasy breath matched by gentle wave.

 

Take me to the sea

Hold me while I kick and giggle,

Salt buoyed and delighted

Enlightened, emboldened

And renewed.

 

Take me to the sea

When my mood is black

And watch as Nature’s power

Brings me back

To harmony and wonder.

 

Take me to the sea.

And have me bathe in shallow waters

Ice cold, yet warming

Jewel-like light

On my being.

 

Take me to the sea

And never let me wander.
