Hola guppies, I'm bored again so I'm just going to write a brand new poem and publish it in this chapter. Hope you like it.


The ocean is a-calling me

And a bargain must be made

On whether I live at sea

Or stay and be afraid

That shallow living will slowly consume

My spirit and personality

But the gamble is done, I have one

And I will live forever free

To roam the ocean, without fear

Or guilt of what I left behind

Because the shackles of land

Is no longer a fear on my mind

Breathe in and out, deep and slow

I roam the world, no burden on me

The shackles of land are far behind

I swim for life; I am free

The ocean is a-calling me

And I must pick up the phone

And answer him, return to sea

I must return home

The waves are a-calling me

It's no longer safe on land

"Return home to me" he says

I dive in, to hold his hand

Triton is a-calling me

To be with him forevermore

I must answer the call, so away I swim

Further away from shore

Poseidon is a-calling me

To protect me in his realm

I shall return to thee, great god

And serve, just guide me to thy helm

Amphitrite is a-calling me

To return to safety and bliss

So by her side, I shall ride

And guard her, the lovely miss

The ocean is a-calling me

I don't have much longer now

Before I can return to my home and see

How much my life will turn around

For the shackles of land

Will chain me no more; I will be free

Just one more moon, I will take Triton's hand

As he guides me to the sea
