-Ocean's Raging Hand-
by Jerenii Aeglienne


The ebb and flow of Ocean's raging hand
are not to be ignored by mortal men.
The eye of Neraeos be on you where you stand,
and may the salty waters ease you in--

they are not to be ignored by mortal men.
For in the moonlight, or when last expand
the salty waters to ease you gently in,
His aura pervades us, the continent spanned

by the moonlight, and when at last expand
ribboned rivers flitting to the ocean,
His aura pervades us, the continent spanned
by familial ties and rising waves, again.

As ribboned rivers flit to the ocean,
salty fingers grasp onto the sand.
Familial ties and rising waves, again
prove the enduring realm of Ocean, and

as salty fingers grasp onto the sand,
show us all the beauty that extends--
to prove the undying realm of Ocean and
the Lord to Whom we should attend,

who shows us all the beauty that extends,
and all the power that lies away from land.
The Lord, to Whom we should attend,
may bless those who follow His command,

for there is great power far away from land.
May He guid us as along the path we wend,
and bless those who follow His command.
Only be certain never to offend.

May He guide us as along the path we wend,
and the eye of Neraeos be with you where you stand.
Only be certain never to offend
the ebb and flow of Ocean's raging hand.

Penned by my hand on the 15th of Glacian, in the year 418 AF.
