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!
