True Blue
Listen to Lisa's poem ... read by JH
I rise and then fall as I follow the call
of the charming but changeable Moon.
I rock and I roll, sometimes losing control—
when warm, I might feed a typhoon!
I tumble and crash with a powerful splash
as the shore interferes with my motion.
But always, I’m here, and I won’t disappear.
Who am I? Your true blue,
the Ocean!
of the charming but changeable Moon.
I rock and I roll, sometimes losing control—
when warm, I might feed a typhoon!
I tumble and crash with a powerful splash
as the shore interferes with my motion.
But always, I’m here, and I won’t disappear.
Who am I? Your true blue,
the Ocean!
