A Balancing Force.

Do you know who I am?

Shimmering.

Shining.

Reflections from light.

I am calm and I am vicious.

Through time, day and night.

I am grand and peculiar.

Long, deep and wide.

Sometimes you embrace me

Sometimes you are shy.

I am often seen as mysterious.

Tempting, yet unknown.

Throughout many moments

Various characteristics can be shown.

To the depth of my being,

I provide many things:

Comfort.

Enjoyment.

Shelter.

Entertainment.

Peace.

New life.

Satisfaction.

Emotional Release.

Grounding.

Sounds.

Sensations.

These things and other variations you will see.

I am a fortress of giving

And an escape from the world.

I am ample yet shrinking.

I am a light

And a balancing force.

I am close and then far

And then close once more.

I am moving.

I am flowing.

Consistently.

Some see me daily.

Some have never seen me at all.

I may be your friend,

Or from your friend, I may be far.

You may yearn for my presence

Or from my presence, you may divert.

You may recognize my features.

My colors - green, blue, slightly yellow and spottings of white.

Do you know who I am?

Do you recognize me?

My name is the ocean.

The waters.

The sea.

Perhaps you understood

Did you identify me?
