We all
came from the sea.
We are tied to the ocean.
And
when we go back to the sea —
Whether it is to sail or to watch it —
We are
going back
From whence we came.

SEA
CALL
I must
go down to the seas again,
to the
lonely sea and the sky and all I ask is a tall
ship
and a star to steer her by.
And the
wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white
sail's
shaking and a gray mist on the sea's face
and
a gay dawn breaking.
I must
go down to the seas again, for the call
of a
running tide is a wild call and a clear call
that
may not be denied.
And all
I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying
and
the flung spray and the brown spume,
and
the sea gulls crying.
I must
go down to the seas again
to the
vagrant gypsy life, to the gull's way
and
the whale's way the winds like a knife.
And all
I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing
fellow
rover and quiet sleep and a sweet dream
when
the long treck's over.

As
we return to the earth and sea from whence we came,
"Divine creator of all in heaven and on earth, We
bring before you the last earthly remains of (name) for return to
you to do with as you will, and
to set free for all eternity; to remind us that forever they shall live
in the wind and the waves and on the earth in substance. Even
though the spirit is already with you, we
ask that you receive these ashes of the one that you created, that
you might create again from them life anew."
Amen
