Ocean Poem

I am inspired by the vast salty ocean that is filled with stories and adventures. I wrote this poem letting my imagination run wild, imagining the broad ocean.

Tales Of The Ocean

© James Dunn
The ocean, of deep blue mysteries,
Sways in a crushing pool of wonder and histories.
Full of life, larger than small,
The fish swim together, one and all.

It stretches further than the eye can see,
The ocean is entirely free.
Waves that crash on the rocky outcrop,
They will never not move, they will never not stop.

The Ocean gleams off the bright sunset,
Sharks that lurk beneath, propose a threat.
Seaweed dangles beneath the broad sea,
Seagulls sway above flying in a spree.

Lifeguards rest on the shore ahead,
Crisp sea air blows against their head.
Dolphins, Squids, Seals and more,
Wait until you hear the whale’s mighty roar.

I love the ocean; it’s beautiful to me,
I just hope you see the same, I plea.

  • The Ocean is deeper than its tales. James Dunn moved my imagination of the mysteries and histories of stories and adventures of the Ocean here and thereabouts across the shores and unto the body of the Ocean, speeding intoxicatingly without fully showing the imageries that set my mind, heart, body and soul out to sail in the first place with his boat of poetry titled, TALES OF THE OCEAN, and left me on the wings of the waves and tides to struggle, without the Lifeguards of Africa, South of the Sahara. Be that as it may, I was able to come over, to see through the veil, in appreciation of his inspiration. I love the Ocean too, and I must say, it's much more beautiful to me.
