The wind, it pauses
its whispers now still
As the waves
they cease their laughter
their voices gone, until
The sea herself
she drifts off to sleep
In the depths of the night
her slumber to keep
She gently grasps the moon
its radiance so bright
Cradling the stars
her companions this night
And as she drifts
into her peaceful repose
The gentle tide
it ebbs and it flows
a soothing lullaby that grows
The world above, it holds its breath
in reverence and awe
As the sea, she slumbers
her rhythms, her law
For in these quiet hours
when the day fades away
The sea, she becomes a canvas
a masterpiece to display
/
The moon, it shines down
a spotlight so fair
Illuminating the sea's serene
dreamlike lair
The stars, they twinkle
a celestial dance
Keeping vigil over
the sea's tranquil expanse
And the tide, it rises and falls
a lullaby so true
Whispering secrets
only the sea can construe
For in this moment of stillness
the sea knows no bounds
Her soul, it is free
no constraints to be found
She drifts in her slumber
a goddess of the deep
Her power, her grace
a secret she'll forever keep
The wind, it holds its breath
in reverence and awe
Respecting the sea's domain
her unwritten law
The waves, they too, fall silent
their laughter now stilled
For they know that the sea's rest
must be fulfilled
/
As the night wears on
the sea's snoring grows
A symphony of the tides
a melody that flows
It whispers of ancient tales
of secrets untold
Of the sea's timeless grace
a story, ever-unrolled
The moon, it watches over
a guardian so true
Casting its silvery glow
the sea's dreams to imbue
The stars, they twinkle
a celestial chorus
Singing a lullaby
to lull the sea, ever-porous
For in this moment of rest
the sea knows no fear
Her power, her might
her essence, so clear
/
She is the mistress of the deep
the ruler of the waves
Yet in her slumber
a gentleness, it craves
The tide, it ebbs and flows
a soothing caress
Lulling the sea
in its nocturnal distress
For even the mightiest of oceans
must rest and repose
To gather its strength
for the day, when it again glows
And so, in the hush of the night
the sea drifts away
Into a realm of dreams
where her soul can truly sway
The wind, it watches
in reverence and awe
Honoring the sea's domain
her unwritten law
The waves, they too
bask in the sea's serene grace
Knowing that in her rest
she'll find the strength to face
/
The challenges that await
when dawn breaks anew
The sea, she'll rise
her power, her might, to imbue
For in the silent hours
when the world is at rest
The sea, she takes her turn
to be truly blessed
She holds the moon, the stars
in her watery embrace
A goddess of the deep
with an eternal, peaceful face
As the tide ebbs and flows
a soothing refrain
The sea, she slumbers on
her rhythm, her reign
For in this moment of rest
the sea is complete
Her soul, her essence
in harmony, so sweet
/
Let us honor the sea
in her nocturnal repose
Bask in the beauty
that her slumber bestows
For in the quiet of the night
the sea, she is truly free
To dream, to rest, and to be
the mistress of the sea

Postscript:
In witnessing the sea's serene slumber, we have been granted a rare and privileged glimpse into the very heart of nature's most powerful and mysterious force. The goddess of the deep, who so effortlessly commands the tides and sways the currents, has here shed her mantle of might, revealing a gentler, more vulnerable side to her unyielding spirit. Yet, even in this state of repose, the sea's power and grace remain palpable, radiating outward like the soft glow of the moon that caresses her watery form. The celestial bodies that keep vigil over her slumber seem to bask in the honor of their sacred duty, their celestial chorus weaving a tapestry of enchantment around the sea's restful domain. Now, we are left with a renewed appreciation for the rhythms and cycles that govern our world. For in the sea's tranquil slumber, we glimpse the eternal ebb and flow of life itself – the inescapable need for rest, restoration, and rejuvenation that lies at the heart of all that is. Let the sea's nocturnal lullaby be a reminder to us all to seek out those quiet, contemplative moments, where we too can surrender to the soothing embrace of nature's restorative power. For in doing so, we not only honor the sea's timeless grace but also unlock the keys to our own spiritual and emotional well-being, finding solace in the knowledge that even the mightiest of forces must, at times, retreat into the stillness of the night. So, as we depart this poetic odyssey, let us carry with us the memory of the sea's slumbering symphony, a melody that will continue to echo in our hearts, guiding us towards a deeper understanding of the natural world and our place within it. For in the sea's nocturnal repose, we find not just a moment of tranquility, but a testament to the enduring strength that lies at the core of all creation.
