Ocean poem

Published 26 September 2023
As I dive into the see-through ocean,
I see a turtle swimming right under me.
I watch as dolphins bob their heads above the water
and as schools of fish swim around the coral.
Waves barrel over the top of me.
The reef, filled with the colours of the rainbow.
As I swim back to the surface, I gasp for air.
I take a deep breath in and dive back down.
I look through a hole in the reef
and see an octopus just sitting there.
As I lift up a heavy rock, I find a family of crabs
eating a piece of seaweed.
As I swim back to the surface
the sunset reflects brightly onto the ocean.
I am surrounded by warm shades of orange.
