Discovering the Deep

A vast ocean
our churning seas
sit within Earth's bowl
containing historical treasures
within murky depths
Secrets settled
still to be unveiled
Precious cargo's price untold
not known if would offset
the cost of any rescue or revelation
Untold scenes priceless
hold enormous quantities of life
scarred by the touch 
and interference of our modern world

Hello Anna, thank you for liking my poem... about sunshine and rain.... better yet, thank you for luring me down to the unknown. I'm talking about the ocean vast. I am kind of glad there's places we will never reach... I don't think God will allow it... :-) enjoyed the poem...LINDA

I forgot to say last time I was here, I saw a documentary recently on the oceans of the world. This reminds me of that movie.
