    Poem Commentary

    This is my submission to the daily challenge good luck to all

    The Ocean

     The Ocean

    Churning, pushing, flowing in and out
    Waves crash leaving me upside down
    Moving swiftly through the ebb and flow
    I find myself turned all around

    In the depths of the ocean's floor
    I am but a stranger to the sea
    Schools of angelfish kiss my face
    How long under the water can I be

    Drifting, swimming, floating by
    Colors dance in the rays of light
    Gliding, dancing, floating surrounds
    For me it's such a short flight

    Bubbles rise, my time is up
    Depart from angel's kiss
    Yearning, longing for more time
    In the ocean is what I will miss

    It is amazing that even submerged at the bottom of the ocean you are able to set these verses on their way to tell your tale. I sure enjoyed the read and wish you luck in the daily competition. mamasan

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
