The majestical grace of the albatross
As he effortlessly soars through the sky
I gaze up in wonder as this fabulous bird
Brings so much joy to my eyes

Such a bird to see in flight
Brings to me such great delight
As I marvel at his grace
All too soon he's gone - without a trace

The pounding of the waves
On an unforgiving sea
This ocean will always earn respect
As it most certainly does from me

Never to be taken for granted
So much wonder below to be seen
As the color of the water
Turns from turquoise blue to the deepest of green

Soon the sun, she will set on the water
A ball of fire will rest on the sea
Such a display - a feast for the eyes
At the closing of another day

Such a romantic setting
For lovers to behold
They see the sun melt below the water
As it spreads like liquid gold

Another day is now over
As the sun, it now rests for the night
But all too soon a new dawn will come
Bringing the mornings first rays of light

Loved this! I'd love to see the treasure known as the ocean someday.

Nature poems are always nice but especially appropriate today, Earth Day. Thanks for painting the ocean as you see it.

SueTang~
This is just the most beautiful penning.
What gorgeous imagery in your verse.

'Soon the sun, she will set on the water
A ball of fire will rest on the sea
Such a display - a feast for the eyes
At the closing of another day

Such a romantic setting
For lovers to behold
They see the sun melt below the water
As it spreads like liquid gold'


Doesn't get much prettier than this !
