The power of the sea transformed into words

The sea,with all it's legends and imagery and beauty can bring to mind a powerful mood and range of emotions.When reading this book,it is written in such a way that makes me feel as though I can reach out and touch the sea,because the writer is the great poet Rod Mckuen.He has a way of making the words you read come to life as if I were the one experiencing the stories and the little truths found in the poems.Whether you are a lover of the sea or not,I recommend the reading of this book as it will cause the reader to think,to reflect upon nature and life and creation,and perhaps to develop a closer harmony with nature.
