Homeland Water Song...

I want to go to the beach

and listen to the song of the waves

I want to smell the sweet saltiness of the Atlantic

I want to feel the gentle spray of the ocean's essence across my face. 

I want to dip my feet in its cool kisses

I want to be submerged beneath the beauty of the blue... 

tasting the sunlight as it peeks through the deep crystal glass

I want my Bahamaland.


For the water...
it speaks
Sweeping over the depths of my soul
it sings
Singing me to ecstasy
This being away
it stings
How I miss the water
The honesty of the tide
Coming and going
But always bringing me
Singing me to ecstasy
a song for all ages
A song that will never die
across the sands of time
A song for my homeland
My love
My pride


I am my Bahamaland.
