The Sea



High tide, low tide
It's the cycle of its life
where crustaceans and amphibians
where the seagulls tribe

It serves as the mirror
of the sky and the sun
if you'll live beside it
you'll be getting the tan
 
Where boats float
and fishes are caught
portions of green and blue
depend how deep desired by you

Oh! How could life be
if there is no sea
so people let it be
for the world's sake
for you and for me
