I Am The Ocean

I am the salty waves
Breaking on the rough jagged reef.

I am the soothing cold sand
Between my toes.

I am a fish swimming
in the salty depths,
Ruling the food chain.

I am a wonderful piece of coral
Swaying slowly in the murky waters.

I am a bottle
Floating across the top
Of the salty surface
From one side of the world to another.

I am the treasure
On the bottom of the ocean.

Waiting to be found.
