The sound of the ocean
is like no
other

the waves pounding
the hard sand
set me free from the
world
beyond the beach grass

the taste of salty air
engulfs all my senses

the sand shines like gold
billions of pebbles
make up the ground
like billions of stars
make up the
sky

the water reflects
what is above
so captivating

I never want to
leave

The greatness of the ocean
Captures me each time
The power of the water
The surface that seems mine
The rolling of the thunder
That rushes every tide
And still I find my peace in
The emptiness so wide
I could stare forever in
The darkness of the waves
And let the flood take all
My cares and fears away
Each time I feel that cool breeze
And smell the scent of shore
I wish to drown in the deepness
Of that ocean just once more

Go grab your wetsuit
your sunblock and wax
go get a clean towel
put them all in your pack
I'll watch as the sun beams from your face
and feel the breeze stirred by your running flip-flopped feet
I'll laugh as you shout "YES" and fistpump the air
This is us.
Our thing.
We.
Surfs up li'l dude!
