The Ocean

By Sara Watson

The ocean: beautiful, wild, and free

Looking out into the mysterious sea

This is where I feel at ease

With the salty ocean breeze

 

The sun glistening onto the sand

This great feeling is my one demand

You feel the warmth beneath your feet

It’s a pleasure nothing else can beat

 

All you have to do is tie back your hair

And release your every care

I want nothing more

Hearing waves crashing onto the sandy shore

 

Washed up, there is a squid

And sandcastles built by a kid

Bronzed people lying in the sun

The fun has just begun

 

The sea breeze running through your hair

Along with a salty smell in the air

As the sand is tickling your feet

A sandy nosed puppy you meet

 

I could spend days just looking at the sea

I feel alive, I feel free

There is no such greater commotion

Than the one found at the Ocean
