The ocean, a canvas for the restless waves, A dance of vast currents, both fierce and calm; In the depths, secrets lie, ancient and true, Above, the gulls cry, stitching the world with psalm.
Tides ebb and flow, a heartbeat of time, Shells whisper stories to those who can hear; I stand at the shore, breathing in the wild, The pulse of the earth, forever near.
