The Harsh Sea

Splash, Crash, Boom 
The clouds go black soon 
The storm approaches 
As the wind reproaches 

The thunder clashes 
The lightning flashes 
The wave appears 
Way to near 

Bamm, Slam, Creer 
The boat is rocked the end is near 
The men dive off with a mighty splash 
Listen as the rocks and boat crash 

Bubble, Bubble, Bubble 
Looks like trouble 
As the shark emerges from the blue 
Hunting humans that have no clue 

Holding on to debris to keep afloat 
Praying to God and losing hope 
The fin is drawing near 
You can smell the fear 

Luckily help was at hand 
Which assisted them to the land 
Dripping water on the sand 
Making sure everyone’s at hand
