Up and Below the Coast

The area is as warm as a hill top, up and above the coast
            An excellence that has made a feeble lion to boast
                  Fishes of an ocean befriend their own beast
                       Cheerfully in unison, we see them feast
                              It is...mutual and placid up there
                                   All that very seems to care
                                           Is as pure as dove 
                                                   All above

                                                    Beneath
                                           Allurements beath
                                   The south part of the scene  
                               Every bit of it...weary and unclean
                        Uneven coast of inducement kept faraway
                  The rough-south side that orders the prey to pray
             A root of all evil clothed in the domain of devil's bedside
       An immersed part of the ocean that makes a weak lion decide

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
