the beautiful treacherous sea has been <br />here since the beginning of time. <br /> <br />prehistoric animals and cavemen alike <br />joined the sea, in all its might. <br /> <br />birds of a feather died together <br />as they tried to fight the weather <br /> <br />continents taken, grounds were shaken <br />the tallest mountain on dry land <br />became victims to the sand. <br /> <br />boats, ships of all sizes <br />taken to the watery grave <br />and not one life to be saved. <br /> <br />the sea is the largest graveyard in the world <br />and does not show favor <br />it takes everybody and everything <br />that rests upon its head. <br />and pulls it all the way down <br />to its watery bed. <br /> <br />and all the secrets that the sea holds <br />is starting to unfold. <br /> <br />yet with all its treachery <br />its as beautiful as can be. <br />the calmness of the ocean <br />puts your mind at ease <br />as you feel the sun <br />and the warm gentle breeze. <br /> <br />and as you look across the horizon <br />at times you could see <br />dolphins jumping up, to greet you and me. <br /> <br />the height and color of the whales <br />in all of its splendor <br />shows you the beauty, that it can render. <br /> <br />when you see schools of fish <br />skimming across the top <br />and a larger predator chasing them <br />his determination will not stop. <br /> <br />the ocean is the final frontier <br />in which the strong will always rule <br />and if you think you could win <br /> 'my friend you are a fool'. <br /> <br />so enjoy the beauty of the sea <br />for it belongs to you and me <br />to give us food and nourish us <br />in the hours of our need.<br /><br />louis rams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beautiful-treacherous-sea/
