Never having seen the ocean until life
Threw her into bold motion
Never having seen the ocean until life
as she knew it changed
Making a bold move …beach
within walking the warm sand

Edge of water~ sand thick like clay
Oozed between her manicured toes
Collecting shells the art she sold
Boardwalk tourist trade

Never having seen the ocean until life
as she knew it changed
She now knew how happy
alone and free  could be.

Never having seen the ocean until life
as she knew it changed

She dances at sunrise and sunset
or both should she wish
whirling and twirling  a
sand spewing step
Hip swiveling belly dancer
Ballerina tu~tued in organza

Never having seen the ocean
Her heart beats to it’s motion
She is free, unencumbered
Now that life as she knew it……

Never having seen the ocean
Her heart beats to it’s motion
She is free, unencumbered
Now that life as she knew it……
