"Sea Poems" by Cale Young Rice is a collection of lyrical poetry written in the early 20th century. The poems reflect a deep connection to the sea, exploring themes of nature, longing, and the human experience as intertwined with the ocean's moods and mysteries. With a variety of voices and perspectives, the collection captures the beauty and tumult of maritime life, while also delving into existential reflections. At the start of "Sea Poems," the author introduces the idea of the sea as an external subconsciousness that influences the forces of life. The opening pieces, such as "Sea-Hoardings" and "The Shore's Song to the Sea," vividly portray the interplay between the speaker's emotions and the sea, presenting images of tumultuous tides and serene horizons. The speaker engages with the sea as a lover, expressing both yearning and acceptance of its unpredictable nature, while also commenting on the cycles of life and the inevitability of change. Through rich imagery and evocative language, Rice establishes the sea as a central character in a narrative that intertwines personal and universal themes.
