ah yes!

photo taken by me april 2019 from the deck of the nieuw statendam

ah yes!

the unity of the sea and me

combined with the uncluttered vastness of space

the horizon waits patiently out there

the steadfast keeper of my hopes and dreams

iridescent clouds dance in a low hanging sky

the water whispers to me

rocking me into what seems like a dream

and suddenly all is well in my universe

ah yes!

The sea never fails to rejuvenate with its hypnotic rush, it’s dynamism that you beautifully describe here. I loved the symbolism of the horizon for new beginnings and endless new possibilities. Indeed, the sky unites with the water there, so magnificent to the soul. May the sea always send you back with your song of life renewed, dear Lydi.

Nothing like travellingto our dream destinations and be in unity with the sea, us and the universe. Nothing like enjoying life to the fullest and be cheerful. Your words dance on the page along with the waves. The sigh is heard loud and clear.

It was a transatlantic cruise...lots of sea days and I just love them. Thank you for the review, Sami. Lydi**

The wake behind the boat I always find mesmerising Lydi**. I love watching it, and the powerful movement of the water. This is captured so well in your posted image. Always fascinating watching where sea meets sky on the horizon. I can understand your affinity with the sea. I also enjoy the rocking as the boat deals with the swell of the waves. Very nicely conveyed lines. Hope all is good with you.

You are welcome Lydii**, and today we are cruising downstream on the Thames. I have an affinity with water too. River or sea.

Bon voyage!
