Granville Harbour

Even though it is dark and gloomy it feels like the ocean knows me
I look out at the huge swell the ocean salt I can smell
As I go for a walk I can hear the birds squawk
Left, right, up, down, left, right, here I’m now at my happy place
The scenery is never the same, the sand washes out then back in again
Blue bottles, seaweed, cowrie shells, buoys, treasures brought in with the tide
As I get to the rock pool I look out and the ocean shines at me like a jewel
I can hear the crashing of the big waves against the rocks
“SPLASH,
CRASH,
BOOM”
The lost souls that I can hear just like the voices that were once here
I take a deep breath in it feels like I’m at home again.
