The sea, she speaks to me

... and to Stan

Sometimes the sea is calm as if asleep. She's welcoming and says to enjoy the peace and tranquility.

... and to Gerard

Sometimes the sea purrs under a gentle swell. She says she is calm but underneath she possesses pent-up energy.

... and to Tobias

Sometimes the sea looks like a tempest in a teapot and she speaks sternly. She says enjoy the ride but pay attention because waves can come out of nowhere when she rebounds off the land.

... and to Clyde and Dean

Sometimes the sea is very agitated and she speaks in a cacophony where she meets the land. Then, she speaks ill sounding as if to warn away from areas that are too dangerous for kayakers to venture.

Whatever the sea says, we are wise to pay attention and pay her the respect she is due.
