Once Upon An Ocean
Once Upon An Ocean
Once upon an ocean
Ubiquitous blue scratches the surface of the sea
Exposing white caps on the mirrored sky
Wind itches to begin and laps the salt
Orange sun gravitates away with waves on distances
Ships fold and roll, moving on mountains made of water
Sudden storms arise like magic above the rain
Wet to the touch, it cries on sails, laden down with sin
Washed over, slapped in the face by angry seas
Wooden beams baptized by the crash of endless waves
Lumber that stood once and lived as bold green trees in forests
Sky weighs the seagulls down
No parachutes for them
Oblivious to it all
Ubiquitous blue lies on the body of the ocean
Settles with the tides when lands roll in
