Strange Steeds of the Sea

Strange Steeds of the Sea Like the salubrious stallions that cordially carousel and carry me Beneath the gainful galleons, you’ll find strange steeds of the sea Wild horses of the aqua-blue precariously prancing by coral reefs In their early equine debut, God's creatures exist amidst disbeliefs Oceanic oddities the Hippocampus hybrids in a Mediterranean mist Mysterious curiosities of bewitching beauty that creatively coexist For what is their purpose a cross between the horse and finless fish Perhaps it is the purchase of some little boys or girls whimsical wish.

Good Morning Winged. What can be said for an entry before us is "everything". I must admit the title caught my eye as I love the ocean however your words kept my attention. This entry is well thought out and the rhyme well executed and never forced. Thank you for sharing an entry that clearly is poetic and very much poetry. Best of luck with the contest.

You captured this God's creation in lovely rhymes. And you gave them meaning with your creative lines: ...For what is their purpose a cross between the horse and finless fish...Perhaps it is the purchase of some little boys or girls whimsical wish. Well done, WW.
