i want to be out on the water

[bertha katzenengel]

floating on my back, or in a boat of any size or style, or on a raft of any kind, or in a floating chair

or even just treading, looking for all the ocean world like a seal, a shark's next meal

I pine, I weep, I long from my deepest soul to be out on the water.

1. wow Bertha!

You just voiced my inner soul! I so MISS the ocean/sea.

I crave that salt water smell and feel

4. it is a cellular need, isn't it?

it never goes away, either

[auntAgonist]

7. never, I always feel renewed and healthier

when I'm by the sea.

:hug: thanks for the thoughts and memories. :)

I need an ocean or a bay.

6. Will the Chesapeake do?

That's in your neighborhood, isn't it?

Right now, I'm looking at a big pool full of cold water on the rooftop outside my office window (I'm killing time betweeen assignments, and wish I could go over there and sneak in)

[bertha katzenengel]

[bertha katzenengel]

14. It's working splendidly.

[BroadwayBrat]

12. I moved away from the beach

I miss it terribly! I used to live 15 minutes from Seaside Heights, NJ, now I am over an hour and a half away! :( Maybe I will try and go this weekend...
