The sea calls to her. The sound of wind in the sails and the musical notes of the waves fill her heart with a shanty rhythm. She listens for the beautiful siren voice while her crew have their ears muffled. To hear just a moment of the soulful siren song fills the mind with whimsically catastrophic thoughts. She signals the crew to approach the rocks that claimed the ship of her lover. She is ready to be serenaded - to feel the call of the sea, and her boot starts tapping to the melody.
