The Ocean's Song - (Poem)
Today I sat in the sand and
Gazed out at the ocean,
Watching the ebb and flow
Listening to the rolling sounds it echoed,
Singing its song!
As it curled the waters to shore
In a white overture mingled with the ocean’s hues,
Pushing it towards the powdery shoreline
Strong and robust did the ocean sing to me,
As a contralto with depth which pierces and penetrates
A song I have never heard before,
Don’t know whether I have ever listened as I did today
Oh! What calm and peace,
The ocean’s song!
It had a melody all of its own as does all of creation
Distinct and significant was the ocean’s song,
I remember just staring
Astounded by the magnificence of the clouds,
Joining in and adding chords to this symphony of beauty
Seeming to touch the ocean,
Layered in tiers of white and blue
I could hear my spirit within me
Rehearsing praises that my soul longed to shout
Declare the glory of God resonate in oneness,
Sing a duet with the rolling waters
Treasure the moment and take it with you,
As a memory you can replay on the screen of your mind
It is indeed precious and captivating,
The song of the ocean is another display of God’s majesty
To absolutely comprehend the Creator would be,
Likened to taking this ocean and putting it in a tea cup
It can’t be done because He is infinite,
We are finite!
Appreciating the brilliance that He is
I would consider that wisdom.
The name of the Ocean that sang this song to me we call it the Atlantic
