Eastern Sea

The sea is languid, hardly moves
Wavelets hardly make a groove
Soft, still shoreline, crystal blue
Turquoise splendour, Emerald hues
Nothing stirring all is calm
Late Spring spreads her gentle balm

BUT WAIT

Flying fish, a silver rain
Seasonal shoals are back again
A jelly fish here & there
Pulsating parachutes so fair
Sand colored, there escapes a skate
Dolphins frolic in our boats wake

Star fish Cuttle fish all are there.
Sea grass waves its hanks of hair
Air bubbles from creatures in the sand
Here crawls a crab with pincer hand
Shells along the beach attest
That life prolific never rests

Who would think to see this sea
That in her depths such bounty be

I am surounded by Sea in the Middle east and it is all of the colours above.
The dolphins are phenominal as well as all the other creatures mentioned.

Hi Frenchsilk

You navigate us through nature's wonders with skill, I especially admired your continuity device - 'BUT WAIT'. The whole journey sounded so idyllic.

Kind regards
