The Ever Constant Sea


A Dear Friend who lost her husband to Pulmonary Fibrosis sent this to me.  It was something her husband had given to her on a Valentine's Day, years ago.  I thought I would pass this on to you...


THE EVER CONSTANT SEA by Rod McKuen

Once upon a time loving set me free,
free as any bird who ever heard the wind blow in the trees.
After love had gone I had merely me and my only friend the ever constant sea.
We've been through it all, my old friend and me, summertime and fall have shown us
all the world there is to see.
So if I love again, if love is good to me, I'll share it with my friend...
the ever constant sea.

Excerpt from "The Sea, The Earth, The Sky"
