Got held up in traffic. Heavy rain, could not reach school. Saw the sky dark grey at 3pm. Wanted to see blue. Wanted the Sea.. Tried to think bright but I could just picture the darkness of your eyes.. The storm didn´t let me forget your eyes… But I still wanted the sea. Your sea.. Not mine. Then, those words came to mind. Along with all the good things you have taught me so far…Is it what people call inspiration?

Living blue dream in traffic jam and in a storm of rain . This helps to live the sad reality .
A begin of inspiration perhaps…
The ocean is like the sun, for everybody to love….
Unless your ocean vision will be something different

Sounds like inspiration to me.You have a great day..
Yes, I think that is inspiration. Isn’t inspiration a passion that sparks us to respond?
Personally, I always *want* the sea… it is in my heart… perhaps in my soul! Have you ever read this poem?:
Sea-Fever
I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea’s face, and a gray dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull’s way and the whale’s way, where the wind’s like
a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick’s over.
John Masefield
Very much inspiration, I must say… and very well put to use too… i’d like to see some more expansion on that
same here– forever raining! cheer up though, skies will be blue again.
