Introduction

This is for a challenge by Poppt The Poet that you can check out here Because it is a private group I can't really share a link but you can try.

I will use the villanelle format for this

The music is "Can't Get It Out Of My Head" by the Electric Light Orchestra which I often use for these poems.

Looking Out From The Ocean Shore

Watching The Waves That Hit The Sand

The Foam Races In, Seabirds Soar

๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ”ฑ๐ŸŒŠ

Dolphins Play Where The Waters Draw

Venus On Her Half Shell Risen

Looking Out From The Ocean Shore

๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ”ฑ๐ŸŒŠ

Poseidon's Trident, He's Primed For

Rising From The Waves, Sea God Grand

The Foam Races In, Seabirds Soar

๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ”ฑ๐ŸŒŠ

Neptunes Realm, Who Mermaids Adore

In Coral Caves By Him, They Stand

Looking Out From The Ocean Shore

๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ”ฑ๐ŸŒŠ

See A Portuguese Man O' War

One Of Many In His Command

The Foam Races In, Seabirds Soar

๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ”ฑ๐ŸŒŠ

When You've Seen It All, There Is More

The Ocean Waves That Kiss The Land

Looking Out From The Ocean Shore

The Foam Races In, Seabirds Soar
