ENJOYING TROPICAL ISLAND DELIGHT

I woke up on a tropical island, mesmerized by ocean wonders: Abounding with marine life, so awesome Blessed by God, the Supreme Creator Colossal bodies of water* function verily well Delighting mankind with their oceanic roles… Enabling oxygen production with ease Freely regulating the Earth system Graciously transferring heat around the world Helpfully driving climate and weather conditions… Influential in the global carbon cycle Joyously supplying aquatic resources Kindly providing economic and social services Lovely home to a lot of biodiversity like coral reefs… Main reservoir of sea nutrients, minerals and salts Nurturing atmosphere by decreasing green-house effect Oceans act as transport means by merchants Purposeful in trade propelling progress and development… Quieting distress and qualms midst recreation pursuits Refreshing, reinvigorating and truly relaxing Simply satiating sailing satisfaction with serenity Therapeutic indeed while indulged in nature trip, triumphant… Useful, profitable while employing millions worldwide Valuable in food production… that’s obvious Worthy for menu ingredients midst festive dining X-factor to population that lives on coastlines Yes with their health benefits for humans Zest and zeal they contribute to cultural and spiritual significance! *Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
