the ocean is alive, her heart beats in the echoing crash against the basalt slabs
the ocean is a creature,
she lives in the daylight
soaking up the sun
she hunts at night, to fill her belly
and sleeps when she's full
the ocean dresses in greens and greys and blues and blacks
she's always changing clothes
the ocean gives and takes away
life, homes, and joy
the ocean is more powerful than man can fathom
with her mighty swells and crashing waves
the rumbles of the tempest and the chaos in her depths
the ocean is alive, and her heart is hard
the ocean is a creature, a beautiful one
do not underestimate her
the ocean is green and gray and blue and black
and she will swallow you up
the ocean gives and takes away
but she rarely shows mercy
the ocean is sister to mother earth
and paralleled in power
the ocean is a force
and she will not be tamed
you have met the ocean, now
but you still do not know her
swim in her depths and meet her creatures
but don't be the one to fill her belly
