Remember By Anita Chapman

Hear the sea inhaling bubbles
Pulling sand from dampened shore
Exhaling a sigh
Waves rushing in high
She's scattering shells across the floor

An earth-child hears the mother's voice
A whisper now reminds her soul
The ocean reigns
Memory remains
Child once lay in a sea-filled bowl

I can hear her rush of breath
When silence fills my ears
She lives in me
The mother-sea
I taste her in my tears
