An Ode to Pacific



Pacific O Pacific

pride of San Francisco;

Standing on this Golden Gate Bridge,

As far as my sight goes,

Your audience I rejoice.

The mist so dense, pure and pristine

Veils you around, so thick and high; Touching the sky-----

I feel the cold winds touch my face, 

But the barrier is there between you and me.

How I wish to be face to face, Dear Pacific!

My hands reach out to touch you

I breathe hard to feel you;

But all I see is nothing but the mist

No ocean, no sky, but only the mist; for all to see. 

Where are you O Pacific?

So boundless and magnificent,

Hiding behind the veil of mist;

You are there, I know for sure.

How I wished to have wings to fly

Reach up to you , touch you, feel you and kiss you.

The grandeur, hues, pristine beauty

I bow to Thee who made you so..........
