The Ocean is Calling (And Other Poems)

The Ocean is Calling

(Written by Sofia)

I don't know why

People aren't more afraid

Of the ocean

That could drown them softly

Maybe they are fascinated

By it's unexpected game

It plays with everything

That enters

Tossing and turning

And throwing around

Or maybe it's the

Beautiful picture

It paints

The mysterious look

The gentle wave it gives

I suppose

The ocean is a lot like

People

Who play a game

With everyone they meet

Like humans

Who look gentle

But are so cruel

Like the person you meet

Who can drown you

But also gives you peace

I don't know why

We aren't more afraid

But maybe it's because

The game is fun

And when we aren't drowning

Or being tossed around

It's beautiful and calm

Inviting you

The ocean is calling
