Ocean Treasures

The ocean's vastness leads way to many treasures
Found deep within and near to shore
Always changing, never ceasing to amaze
Come near to adore it, to feel it, to hear it
It lives, it breathes, it restores my soul
As the waves rush over its shores
Rock tumbling and polishing 
To and fro it gives and it takes
It sustains us from deep within its soul
Each day a new adventure
A new beginning as nature blossoms 
In silent reverence beneath the shining sun
It needs no one's approval
It is as God intended
Nourishing and renewing and so it is
As I stand before it in awe of its vastness and treasures.
