The Thrilling Sea-life
The sea and aquatic life what an amazing
Wonder of life given to man to treasure
In great depth, height and measure
Many people from different walks of life
Wonder about the vicinity to acquire gains
For livelihood and sustenance to remain
Health, resilient, robust, gallant and vibrant
Only to enjoy the moment whilst it lasts.
What an amazing endeavor is the sea life
Where struggle for survival become eminent
Everyone so keen running with great joy enthusiasm and unrelenting sense of hope, and exciterment Just to grab an opportunity for there is no other source of livelihood other than the perceived treasures from the sea.
The games played around with everyone
being witty trying to out smart the other
Through great selling and convincing skills
What a world of intricacies and smartness
One to be vigilant before becoming victim of
Deception cunningly perpetrated everywhere
It is a struggling environment with everyone
Keenly eager and amazed to maximize earnings to take home to celebrate the success albeit the desire to outsmart everyone
People of different walks of life with marked
Difference clearly distinguished like day and night can be seen plying the vicinity everyone representing their distinct interest no matter what it takes oh what an amazing sea life
The waves occasionally blasting to the point of scaring bystanders with the fear of being dragged away into the sea with some seen
Shouting and gesticulating furiously and running for shelter with the hope of being saved from the rambling and mumbling of the unfriendly waves oh what a terrifying moment.
Others waiting patiently for the boats to arrive to fulfill their optimism and desires to obtain fish to take home for a nice delicacy or sell to earn an income to convert for personal engagements and aggrandizement.
So much going on within the sea environment
But known to only those who observe and Cherish these beautiful and amazing happenings oh what an amazing sea life And so much lessons to derived and learned to appreciate the wonderful beauty of Nature.
