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.

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.

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.

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
