They Shall Dream of Thee
Pretty shell

upon the shore,

that floated up

from the ocean floor.

Children come

to play with you.

Waves crash in,

all frothy blue.

Up to their ears

they listen close,

hearing the roar

of your watery coast.

The mystery of you,

your hiss inside.

they play in awe

as you raise your tides.

You made their day,

pretty shell of the sea.

When they sleep tonight

they shall dream of thee!
