The living ocean

>

I give you things from my big ocean.
I painted them here part by part,
hoping that this little something,
maybe touch inside your heart.

In some of them you hear the ocean.
The sound of waves that rush inside.
Telling us of all those stories,
of the lands that sea went by.

It also sees the people careless,
that choose to live in river streams.
They had to cut all vegetation,
that kept their banks… they didn’t see.

Also when the ocean’s storming
It takes us, way up with sand.
And If you find a little starfish,
take it from the dry, to mend

All creatures they need been care for
not at home in garbage cans
Tread like us the ocean rightful
and you’ll get as us, its fan

Beautiful image and words. Makes me want to escape to the seaside now, as there is no place quite like it - the fresh sea air and the rush of the crashing waves. I agree that we should try to protect the creatures that inhabit the ocean so that future generations can also enjoy these marvels.

Artist Reply: Thank you very much for your great comment. It's a good thing to escape there... Storm or a soft breeze, it always takes you thoughts like in a bottle away...
