Message of the ocean

Back and forth,

The waves crash against the sand,

With a beautiful sound of calmness,

The waves breathe in,

And they let out a big sigh,

In and out,

In and out,

The beautiful blue ocean goes,

Maybe it’s sending a little message,

A message telling you,

That it is important to always be calm,

To take time to yourself,

It is important to be relaxed,

Because that makes you happy,

Take care of yourself and others,

As very best you can,

I believe you can do it,

And so does the ocean.
