The Ocean Deep

The Ocean Deep

A Poem by Miles Wilburn
"

About growth and change in the world around you.

"
A boy stands on the edge of a tattered ancient dock.

His ruffled hair fluttering as the rocky winds rose.

The boy breathes in the smell of the musty rocks;

The ancient sea smells softly sifting themselves into his nose.


The sound of a jackhammer echoes closely behind.

He knows that things are ever-changing, and evolved.

The ocean deep will soon be a memory he is reminded of;

This place is becoming a shopping mall.
