Sea Of Cortez

 

If love were but a mere abstraction,
I’d wish it still my sole distraction.

SEA OF CORTEZ
Tons and tons of brawny brine
The Sea of Cortez hurls
Against this Baja shore divine,
This Cabo cast with pearls.
Rhythmic rush and heaving crush
Of waves upon this shore;
Never ceasing, ne’er a hush
Beating, beating ever more.
It’s home to whales beneath her waves,
It’s home to sails above;
Its fingers carve out rocky caves,
Its constancy inspires love.
