Love of the Ocean

Lingering waves surge into the shore. Ominous glory, it rages for a score. Vivacious peaks beautify its core. Each one different, then the one before, Once you have seen the power it holds. From then on, the greatness unfolds. Terrifyingly beauty raptures your mind. Hearing its sounds enthralls us to find. Earnest thoughts we once left behind. Oceans beauty is spellbinding at dusk. Creating fresh aroma, sometimes musk, Every day delivering, treasures of mollusk. After a day at the ocean, you may enjoy cusk. Not one person denies the beauty so brusk.

Hi, Cecil. This really caught my attention. I love the "fresh aroma" of the sea. Have you ever spent a night on the sea? The change from afternoon to twilight can be breathtaking! Great verse, Carolyn
