The Sea

Shh…

Says the Sea

I can see

your seaweed,

your shells,

your sand,

your ships.

The yellow sun shines

as I sit

on the grainy sand.

I can smell

your salt

I can tell

there’s a lot.

I see the sea

as the sunset sets.

I have seen

your golden tint

your relaxing wind

as I leave the sea

with a grin.
