Ocean Waves
Ocean waves rock me,
The blankets of the earth,
Salty blue calmness,
My wild foaming birth.
I sleep on waves of blue,
Rest upon the sand,
Listen to this water,
In this bright blue wonderland.
This serene plain of aqua,
This flat pane of teal,
Can become a monster,
And kill with wild zeal.
Dark clouds loom,
Wild lightning in the sky,
My beautiful bed of turquoise,
Has turned to a killer who lies.
But when my friend calms down,
Becomes happy again,
I listen to the waves,
And rest upon the sand.
