The ship on solid ground Wishing for the ocean on its bow To have the high seas caress its hull The spray refreshing, But it is on ground, Lonely for the ocean, Yearning for that which is so close but afar, Waves seen crashing on shore So inviting, It sees friends in the distance, cutting through waves Traveling the big blue, It craves for what it see's Then a child jumps on "Mummy," "Coin," The music starts, Reality sinks back in, It travels the waves, of plastic blue, Music of soothing noise It dreams of the ocean But never will be, As it sits out side an amusement park, "Teased by the view of the ocean " That it will never feel, Only this sea of plastic blue.
