"Ocean at Dusk"
Like a garment of blue velvet
As blue as my baby's eyes
The sea drapes the horizon
Enveloping the skies
Full and billowing sleeves it has
Fashioned in intricate hand
With delicate patterns of lace
Bordering the skin of the sand
Shimmering jewels adorn it
Gleaming pinpoints of light;
Proudly the Earth wears her garb
As daymetamorphs into night

About the Book
Ms. Lovick is passionate about the plurality and diversity of cultures within our United States and the world at large, and tries to help her students understand and relate to the music and cultural customs of many races and nationalities. She believes that within our culture there are many misunderstood minorities, not just the ones commonly espoused, and she understands their plight, having herself been part of one minority group or another for much of her life. Her hope is that the readers of her poems will be able to better empathize with the life situations of other cultural entities, thereby appreciating the beauty of their world.
