Where June's Heart Sways
- Answering the Sea's Timeless Call
June's poem, once filled with sentiment and grace
For the sea, it knows your heart, your restless soul
Yearning for the boundless, the world to extol
The sea, its eternal call, whispers your name
Beckoning you forth, to a world beyond the tame
Its waves, ebbing and flowing, a rhythmic refrain
Luring your soul, to its boundless domain
The tides, they come and they go, without cease
June, once a poem, so sentimental and fair
The sun, it rises in the east, sets in the west
Yet we watched, mesmerized, the clouds' dance, their best
All afternoon, on the beach, the rocks bore witness
To a beauty that fades, as the daylight dims
But now, as the night falls, and all lights are out
The sea, it stands alone, its lamp aglow, no doubt
Why does it shine, when all else is dark?
Is it a beacon, calling you back to its mark?
For the sea, it knows your true name, your destiny
Whispered in the waves, for your heart to see
It calls you to return, to its endless expanse
To embrace the freedom, the eternal dance
Yet, as you gaze upon the shoreline, now bare
The footprints you left, a ghost in the air
The left, the afternoon's passing grace
The right, the dusk's embrace
The tides, they have claimed them, erased their trace
Leaving only the memory, of a fleeting embrace
As the lamp in the night, the sea stands alone
Illuminating the path, to your rightful home
It beckons you forth, to its embrace, so true
Where your name, once lost, will finally be renewed
The clouds, they have danced, their beauty now gone
But the sea, it remains, its light ever-shining on
For it knows, that your spirit, it cannot be tamed
Destined to roam, your true self, forever reclaimed
Heed the sea's call, let it guide you away
From the confines of land, to where you truly sway
For in its endless expanse, your soul will find peace
As you surrender to the waves, and your freedom, never cease

Postscript:
June's heart swings with the eternal rhythm of the sea. Through the interaction of light and shadow, day and night, this poem invites you to think about the transience of earthly existence and the eternal and ever-present magnificence of the sea. Faded footprints, dancing and disappearing clouds all remind us profoundly that the real essence of our existence is not a short moment, but an eternal rhythm that dominates the natural world. It is the sea that shines with an unshakable light in the dark, guiding us to find ourselves and find our true selves like a lighthouse. Listen to the call of the sea, surrender to the boundless sea, embrace the freedom waiting for us, because there, our souls will find the peace and rebirth they so deeply desire. The sea, with its eternal wisdom, knows our real name and destiny, and it calls us back to the source and the original essence of the core of our existence. In response to this call, we may finally find comfort and integrity far away from us, because we will always dance with the ebb and flow. Like June, let's respond to the call of the sea, go forward bravely, and embrace the infinite possibilities waiting for us in the vast and unknown waters of our self-discovery.
