Marikate Kingston Poet Rhyme

God's Majestic and Wide

God's Majestic and Wide

        Breathe in an ocean so vast and so grand where seagulls and seashells sprinkle the sand.
        So turquoise blue, majestic and wide, homes for God's creatures at high and low tide.
        Like the Humpback Whale who sings a beautiful hymn or a baby sea turtle just learning to swim.
        Like a stingray, a lobster, a shiny red cod, or friendly grey dolphins who live in a pod.
        
The Angel Fish, the Violet Snail, a Giant Squid, seaweed, and kale all need the oceans to breathe and survive, all need the oceans to stay alive.

 Thank God for the oceans so vast and so grand, where seagulls and seashells sprinkle the sand.
So turquoise blue, majestic and wide, homes for God's creatures at high and low tide.

Jennifer Fenn August 28, 2021 at 10:41 PM Exquisite, Marikate! I love ocean poems, so I had to check this one out. I'm glad I did. I was in for a treat/1 Marikate Kingston September 10, 2021 at 12:03 PM What a nice word to use, exquisite. I'm new to writing, so this meant a lot to me. Wow, thank you.

Scott Nicholls July 29, 2021 at 12:28 PM GOD IS MAJESTIC..! Loved the reminders of many, many times spent renewing my Spirit & Soul at the Ocean Astounded at GODS Magnificent Creation. Marikate Kingston September 10, 2021 at 12:01 PM I think it is a wonderfully peaceful experience to be at the beach in the early morning I agree with your comment. I'm glad you liked my poem. I am sorry to be responding weeks after you posted your nice comment, still learning how this website works.

Sam Kauffman July 28, 2021 at 8:51 AM Very lovely Marikate. God has filled our oceans with an amazing abundance of awesome creations. I enjoyed reading this very much - looking forward to reading more of your poems. Welcome to the soup! Blessings to you! Marikate Kingston September 10, 2021 at 12:08 PM Thank you. God has, I agree. I didn't realize I could respond to compliments, feeling silly. Spent a lot of my childhood raised near water. Sad to see people leave their garbage behind, especially parents of young children.

Joanna Daniel June 27, 2021 at 2:59 AM An amazing poem that reminds us of God's wonderful creation, I love watching the sea and you have brought out its beauty and brilliant creatures so very well:) Marikate Kingston September 10, 2021 at 11:57 AM I am guilty of not reading and responding to many kind comments on my poem. Thank you. I live near the ocean and am sad to see sand toys left behind so often. I pick up plastic a lot, the worst culprit. I'm glad you liked this poem I appreciate your nice comment.

Janice Canerdy June 16, 2021 at 5:58 AM Marikate, this is a really lovely, moving poem--a powerful descriptive of the sea and its many creatures. Mankind is abusing the oceans--such a shame!! Janice Marikate Kingston June 17, 2021 at 7:20 PM Thank you, Janice, I am touched by your kindness.
