Echoes of the Ocean

The ocean speaks in whispers low, 
Its voice a song of ebb and flow, 
Waves that dance beneath the moon, 
A lullaby, a timeless tune. 
Silver stars on midnight’s crest, 
Reflect in waters, soft and blessed, 
Tides that pull and gently sway, 
Guiding sailors on their way. 
Shells that shimmer on the shore, 
Echo tales of days before, 
Where mermaids sang and dolphins leaped, 
In waters blue and secrets deep. 
The sea, a mirror to the sky, 
Where seagulls soar and spirits fly, 
Its depths, a realm of mystery, 
Where dreams dissolve in reverie. 
Storms that rage with thunder's roar, 
And waves that crash, forever more, 
But calm returns, as peace must be, 
In the heart of the restless sea. 
The ocean holds the world’s embrace, 
In every drop, in every trace, 
A story old, yet always new, 
The sea, a love forever true.
