Timeless Sea

Long before time
When the worlds just begun
Not a creature alive
And the land’s on the run
Mightiest of all
Is the Sea

The tiniest germ had started to squirm
As the land grew to three
It took billions of years
Between you and me
But what was that to the Sea

Soon life was born
Organically formed
As the one became seven Seas
Then great creatures roamed
Now tossed from their throne
As man came to be

And now here we sit
In this blink of a life
It’s not hard to see mysery
Violence, cruelty
Polution, corruption
We throw our mess at the Sea

What a perfect notion
To live on the ocean
Floating through life with glee
But governments screw you
Rip off and sue you
They’ve put a price on the Sea!

I’ve been off shore
I’ve seen it’s wrath
It’s power, it’s majesty
Man is a fool
Still yet to learn
True revenge from the Sea

Well tides will change
But that’s not for me
I like the waves rolling endlessly
And there’s nothing quite like
Just watching the Sea

hey there,

I love the love u obviously and rightfully have for the sea.
it is so scary to think of just how far we've really pushed our luck with carelessness of our world and with every chance we had to mend our ways.
I do like ur write but may not share your opinions on how all was created and so on, still, a pleasure to read
peace

Thank you.

Thanks for the kind words. The point here was how vast, powerful, and ancient the Sea is. It doesn't explain evolution, so to speak. I could do that though, if you like. He, he, he

Great passion Tom... I have

Great passion Tom... I have a feeling the timeless sea will still be around forming some new form of life ...even if we're not!

Great Write!
