Description
The fourth in a series "Down to the Sea in Ships" part of my Sea Stories gallery. Digitally hand painted from a reference photograph in the public domain.
I don't know when I fell in love with the sea.
I've never lived by the sea really - but the sea fascinates me.
Its power, its moods, its vastness...are somehow
an endless source of inspiration to me in both my writing and my art.
I walked beside the evening sea
And dreamed a dream that could not be;
The waves that plunged along the shore
Said only: "Dreamer, dream no more!"
- - - -George William Curtis
The sea is never still.
It pounds on the shore
Restless as a young heart,
Hunting.
The sea speaks
And only the stormy hearts
Know what it says:
It is the face
of a rough mother speaking.
The sea is young.
One storm cleans all the hoar
And loosens the age of it.
I hear it laughing, reckless.
They love the sea,
Men who ride on it
And know they will die
Under the salt of it
Let only the young come,
Says the sea.
Let them kiss my face
And hear me.
I am the last word
And I tell
Where storms and stars come from. . .
Carl Sandburg, Young Sea
