Hello Harry,

I love the emotional impact that this poem brings. I love poetry that uses the powerful characteristics of our oceans and seas as metaphors for our intense feelings of longing. I would love to see it formatted in stanzas. However, I realize that this is your creative presentation. I really appreciate the content--it's moving.
