Pour The Seawater Into A Shell

Pour the seawater into a shell
and hear each sound of the ocean,
you can own some of it 'till it dries out;
would you become a captain
and sail away to seek adventures?
Tempestuous oceans frighten, 
grit keeps brave sailors alive and alert...
who has ever survived with a feeble will?
Have you traveled by sea and felt distress:
were you serenaded by a lovely siren?

Pour the seawater into a shell,
many kids have done that
and felt cheer and thrill; 
be as curious as them,
shred your boredom:
step out, voyages wait!
