My feet stand firm
Upon this shore
While my heart rises
To the violence
Of the sea
Beyond the chill waves
That cover my toes
I know another shore
Awaits
I see it only
When I close my eyes
I wait for the moment
My feet alight
Upon those sands
Having danced across
Oceans
To reach that space
To find that home
Unseen
And invisible
But waiting
Patient as a heartbeat ~ Caroline A. Slee
