An Ocean Poem

The ocean.

The sacred, unexplored.

So vast. So mysterious. She is our key to life.


What can you do,

Other than stare at the big blue?


How can I save,

With each breaking wave.


Teach me your lessons.

Show me calm. Show me your bliss.

Entertain me with a kiss.


Sparkle like the stars. Take me away into the unknown.

Give me awe and wonder.


Show me trust.

Slam into me with lust.


Get me wet.

A sprinkle, a flood.

I’m terrified just yet.


Beat like a slow, ancient heart…

Change.

Change.

Change.


Surround me.

Support us.


I love you ocean.

I love you water.

I honor you.

I am sorry.
