The Sea Sounds the Same-by Devi Nina Bingham

The sea sounds the same

wherever you go

with a frothy hi-ho!

it plays a sporting game


Calling to the sailor

and stealing from his wife

promising a life

with no womanly jailer. 


Nothing near as free

as the vast expanse

bust a jig and dance

when land you cannot see. 


From the fish to the captain

all are glad to be

part of the majesty

water is where it's happening. 


The sea sounds the same

wherever you go

with a frothy hi-ho! 

You'll be glad you came.
