Ocean Stories

Ocean Stories

A Poem by Moonie
"

~Just a romantic poem~

"
To chambers and notches of seaweed,
we can journey, if ever you need
to sleep, hearing the ocean waves.
We would collect the conch shells the sea saves
for lost travellers, like you and me.
We would go together to the foaming sea,
where strange melodies paint images
on the walls of chambers and cages
of the foaming periwinkle sea.
We would go and hear that melody.
When the northern star shall reach out,
and the distant mariner boy would shout,
that it is the time for mermaids to ascend,
we would wait by the caves and hear their voices blend
with the sound of the troubled sea.
Alone, in the silence, only you and me.
When the air is salty and the water hushed, 
we would sleep, wrapped in the golden dust.
Should the cries of the pale skinned sea
ever break our lost rhyming reverie,
we would sing aloud to the moon,
to lull and hush the childish sea soon.
If its promise, the platinum moon shall keep,
we would drown again in our sleep,
and dream beautiful dreams of voices in a shell,
Till the dawn arrives and tinkles the church bells
of some distant, dry, deserted town's core.
We would awake again and be washed ashore.

Should the cries of the pale skinned sea
ever break our lost rhyming reverie,
we would sing aloud to the moon,
to lull and hush the childish sea soon.
Your words are haunting and beautiful...as though one is floating in a dream upon this sea. Lovely writing.

Beautiful and haunting, eh?? Woohoo, that's quite a review!!! :) :) Thank you! :)
It's thoughtful and refreshing!🏊🏊🏊🏊
But I very humbly suggest you divide it
into several stanzas, that way, it would
be much more comfortable to read!
Wonderful penning,as always🎆🎇

I wanted the poem to sound like a story, and so I didn't divide it.

Very nice, it captured the power, mystery and even the hint of chaos and doom that the Ocean seems to generate for most people. Quite well done.

Breathtakingly beautiful! I too felt the rhythm of the ocean current and the mermaids' song...I'm entranced by the ocean even though I live landlocked in the middle of a huge continent! This write is exquisite in its tranquil, soothing quality.
