Lost At Sea

Ariel and Nemos thoughts for once being lost and now found.

The oceans full of new opportunities,
and I'm ready to take the plunge
to become lost at sea,
or lost in love
searching for my prince charming,

While meeting interesting creatures along the way...
like Sebastian the Lobster,
Dory and Flounder... two very different fish,
and the Turtles that are like dude,
not caring about the world
or the keys that help me find my way

Being under the sea
can be great
it means getting away from my controlling father,
I know he means well
but I want to find things out on my own
I want to go through the trials and tribulations,
I want to go through heartache after heartache

I really don't understand why,
but I want to so I can
learn from my mistakes,

Then I'll make it home again...
safe and sound
so you can welcome me with open arms
because your baby is now found

And taken out of the sea of endless possibilities
an put into a tank of love, hope,
and much need satisfaction  and gratitude...

Author's Note

I combined Ariel from The Little Mermaid and Nemo from Finding Nemo and this is what I got. I hope you like it.

It wouldn't let me put Nemo's picture with the words. Can someone help... thanks. :)

Reviews

I like the idea. As short poems on their own they each work. As a collective I had a hard time keeping it straight. maybe it was the jumping between character thoughts. They almost go together but seem to be just a little off at times. While this is good I would suggest reorder for a better flow of thought.

That's such a cute concept to combine Nemo and Ariel, it's really a pairing I never thought of. Nice Job!

[Fontane Wong]

A really cute idea. A smart way to bring out the whole point of the poem, love the way you use sea and cartoon charcters. There are many oppunities to test life, that's how life works. Also, it's well planned. Neat. An excellent poem.

Cute. I really liked it. :)

[Coyote Poetry]

I like the use of the sea and the cartoon characters to make your point. Life should be like the sea. Ever changing and many opportunities to test life. Thank you for the outstanding poem.

the beginning was a great metaphor but the nemo and ariel stories didn't really tie in..or I didn't get it.
