Ocean Breezes

Seagull’s updraft ride
Over beaches glide
On breakers, seals slide
Wily crabs, in coral hide

Calm today, wild tomorrow
Ocean does what oceans’ do
Temperament of joy or sorrow
Salty cauldron of marine stew

How beautiful the Sea
God’s gift to you ‘n me
Earth’s pregnant womb
For some a watery tomb

To the Sea be humble and mild
She's thy Mother…you her child
