NARWHAL DREAMS: poems by the sea

The ocean has always had a profound effect on my soul. I feel it from the moment my nose smells the salt bristling the air. I feel it with all my senses. As soon as I see the horizon meeting the sea, as soon as I sink my toes in the sand or slip my feet in sea foam slippers… I know I am home. Sea, sky, sand and salt course through my veins and toss all cobwebs from my brain. I am centered. I can be me at the foot of the sea. Here within these pages I invite you to come dwell by the sea with me.
