Since eighth grade I have lived by the sea. I was fortunate that my parents bought a house across from the ocean in Fort Lauderdale. I have lived in that wonderful old house ever since. I have raised two sons and have shared my love of the sea with them and my husband, George.<br /><br />I started writing poetry about the ocean when I was in High School. Since I specialize in beach and waterfront properties, I thought I would share some of my poems about the sea. Feel free to send me one of your poems if you like.<br /><br />- Mollie<br /><br /><br /><b>THE SEA AND I</b><br />I have a special friend<br />Since childhood she's been a friend of mine<br />And she comforts me each time -<br />The sea and I.<br /><br />On restless nights when I can't sleep<br />I can hear her reassuring roar<br />And in the dawn when I awake<br />I run to greet her on the shore -<br />The sea and I.<br /><br />The sandpipers all know her well<br />And they dash and dart from her caress<br />A playful mother, pouting child<br />I guess I understand her best - <br />The sea and I.<br /><br />When hope takes flight on puffy clouds<br />And life becomes a crushing foe<br />I have but one friend I run to<br />The only friend I'll always know -<br />The sea and I.<br />
