Posidonia is a genus of flowering plants. It contains two to nine species of marine plants ("seagrass"), found in the seas of the Mediterranean and around the south coast of Australia.
The APG system (1998) and APG II system (2003) accept this genus as constituting the sole genus in the family Posidoniaceae, which it places in the order Alismatales, in the clade monocots. The AP-Website concludes that the three families Cymodoceaceae, Posidoniaceae and Ruppiaceae form a monophyletic group. Earlier systems classified this genus in the family Potamogetonaceae or in the family Posidoniaceae but belonging to order Zosterales.
This is a list of species that are nominally contained by the genus:
He vuelto a cruzar el puente que nos une y nos separa, ese que tú me tendiste como una tela de araña, el que cruza los ríos de tu pecho y de tu espalda, ese que llega al jardín que nunca acaba. He trepado las enredaderas de tu pelo y de tus venas. He llegado hasta el cielo, lo he tocado con mis dedos. He mentido tantas veces, pero esta vez era cierto. De las nubes he sacado hilo para tejer sueños, sueños que otros vendieron. Y esperé tanto tiempo que di con lo inesperado. Me dejé arrastrar por mareas y corrientes y ahora sé, sé muy bien, que la noche es sólo para los que sueñan y entregan su mirada al cielo y a las estrellas. Me he arrastrado amaneciendo como niebla que despierta. Levitando sobre el agua, he contado tus pestañas. Sumergido en tus palabras, te he escuchado, te he observa...

The crystal-clear waters of Ibiza and Formentera are legendary, drawing millions of tourists to these Spanish Mediterranean islands every year. What most visitors don't realize, though, is that the sparkling turquoise water, rich marine life, and spectacular beaches all owe their existence to an underappreciated organism: Posidonia, or seagrass. A unique flowering plant that lives entirely underwater, Posidonia is a critical component of the Mediterranean's marine ecosystems. Without it, the islands wouldn't be the same!
If I said what's on my mind
you'd turn and walk away
disappearing way back in your dreams
It's so hard to be unkind
So easy just to say
that everything is just the way it seems
You look up at me
And somewhere in your mind you see
a man I'll never be
If only I could find a way
I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am
And it gets harder every day for me
to hide behind this dream you see
A man I'll never be
I can't get any stronger
and I can't climb any higher
You'll never know just how hard I've tried
Cry a little longer
and hold a little tighter
Emotions can't be satisfied
You look up at me
And somewhere in your mind you see
a man I'll never be
(instrumental)
If only I could find a way
I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am
And it gets harder every day for me
to hide behind this dream you see
A man I'll never be
(instrumental)
Can't get any stronger
and I can't climb any higher
You'll never know just how hard I've tried
Cry a little longer
and hold a little tighter
Emotions can't be satisfied
Oh you look up at me
And somewhere in your mind you still see
a man I'll never be
If only I could find a way
I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am
And it gets harder every day for me
