THE INVITATION

“He is the Maker of heaven and earth and the ocean.”
Psalm 146:6a (New International Reader's Version)


THE INVITATION

The alluring Atlantic…
Please tell her, “Hello!”

I hear her invitation…
In my imagination
In each photo I possess
In each sea scene painted by the most imaginative of artists
On each notecard depiction

Stepping on her shores I hear…
The waves swoosh in
The waves rush out
The call of the gulls
The distant foghorn

The ocean calls…
The invitation has been sent
The invitation has been heard
When will the RSVP be sent?
Please tell her, “I’m already here!”
