Ocean
I miss the ocean!
As everyday it was my friend.
But now I'm hot and sticky,
Being stuck inland!
I used to admire her crashing waves,
As they approached the beach.
Now all I have is my garden hose,
Sprinkling water on my feet!
The sunrise was my favorite,
When the ocean sets her free.
Now I just have burnt out lightbulbs,
Near a toilet where I pee.
I miss those days when the ocean was my dearest friend,
Perhaps I'll see her once or many times more, if I move again!
