The Ocean's Night Song

The Ocean’s Night Song

        

The sun dances from east to west

As the sky shows darkness appearing

And the sea turns colder than it was

For the stone tells legends in the dark

As the mountain falls asleep

And the night listens to the wind

So the wind whispers to the stars

The stars glow and give light

For the moon reflects on the ocean

As it turns to dawn which then

Turns to morning and people wake up

Their voices grow louder so you can

Hardly hear the ocean’s song

But it will sing it again, after the sun

Dances from east to west

Their voices grow louder so you can
Hardly hear the ocean’s song
But it will sing it again, after the sun
Dances from east to west

I truly enjoyed this wonderful write however above last lines were like watching a beautiful field of gold...

[Savannah Bly]

Thank you! I understand a little of where you're coming from about the fields in the last few lines. I wrote this when I had just recently moved to Kansas and I was missing the ocean and the sunsets I saw when I was sitting on the docks by the shore. I wanted an ocean nearby, so I wrote my own.

that was my feeling toward reading your work as I was in field of golds while reading your wonderful work and you're most welcome
