Ocean
Waves crashing down,
Onto the sandy ground.
Colors flickering in blue,
Beautiful as can be oh so true.
Fins flickering here and there,
Fast as a frightened mare.
Water dazzled with salt,
Giant rock causin' you to halt.
Whales jumping into the air,
Sharks swimming not harming a hair.
Small fish sensing motion,
This is all part of the OCEAN!
