Vast Oceans Must Last

I love watching documentaries of nature, Full of enchanting momentous adventure, But my favourite by far is the ocean, As it beckons and teasingly invites us To look at a world we could never Imagine, serene, silent, secretive, Spectacular, incredible, and daring, In a magical way breathtakingly alluring, My heart resides with the passionate, Who proudly, and painstakingly Dive and venture into oceans and Waters unknown, allowing us to peep, Into an azure Aqualand, insanely so deep, Where incredible species of fish and Outrageous phenomenal plant life, Astonish and mesmerize human life, Never to bid us farewell, As stories spanning eras magically spell, Bound us, invoke fantasies back to The beginning of time when galaxies Looked down and with infectious delight, Smiled wisely upon our planet With a knowing, futuristic magnetic, Mischievousness, enjoying it’s Confounding aesthetic Layers of anonymity, of underwater history Until finally one beautiful day, Pandora’s box opens revealing to us our Oceans mystery. I marvel at knowledge collected, Intensely reported and documented, So please don't pollute our oceans so vast, And promise to keep such, forever to last.

I really think these documentaries of the beauty of the ocean should be shown in schools to motivate the children to not want to pollute. They should also show what plastics and other debris float on the ocean polluting and killing sea life. Things like that make an indelible impression on a child’s mind and they grow up wanting to save sea life. I love your poem Jennifer. Blessings xxoo

So alive with depth and darkness below and new life abounding each and every day . I don’t ever tire of the underwater world !

The pollution of our waters is horrible to think about. So many just use our natural resources and abuse them and never give back. People like that to me are like a parasite which feeds off the host until it dies. A fine write my friend. God Bless, JB
