Sentient Ocean
A life of it’s own
The lungs of the earth
Only processed in reverse.
It’s skin a liquid landscape
On the surface we traverse.
Currents like veins
Keeping up eternal beat.
Feeding off the rains
Releasing waste by heat.
Defending from the land
With violent wave attack.
Tide retreats twice daily
But soon it will be back.
Arms open for a hug
But looks can be deceiving.
Underestimate this foe
And it’s grasp you won’t be leaving.
It’s mood mimics the weather
Wavering between extremes.
Caught between reality
And psychedelic dreams.

Below is a nice "loungy" house track with a montage of wave images. It's very relaxing and seemed appropriate with this post.
