A vacation takes me to the sea,
to see what I could see;
But what I could see
was magic under the dark blue sea.
.
Walking barefoot along the shore,
I see seashells sit on the floor;
Dive in and go seaward bound,
Motion in the ocean is all around.
.
A tiny shock is what you feel
if you are touched by an electric eel;
Take notice of oysters dressing in pearls
as you admire snails wrapped in curls.
.
Seahorses jump coral reefs
while carrying NO saddle or rains in ocean waves;
Red lobsters prance,
while dolphins join the watery dance.
.
A vacation takes me to the sea,
I love what I see in the sea;
What I say is what I see,
Please join me for adventurous trip to the sea.

When do we leave? What a joyful and whimsical poem! I love the happiness in this!
I love the idea of seahorses carrying no saddle or reins.
Colorful imagery very playful and fun
you had a lovely day by the sea, frolicking in the waves.
Good for you.
i love a visit to the sea :)
Playful trip to the see and you brought us too.
Really like the way you were able to pull this off. A lot of times that much spoken repetition can be a bit overkill but you nailed it. Sounds great, really like it alot:)
I am so ready for the sea.
I would love to be on your next adventure to the sea. :) Wonderful poem. Have a great week.

A wonderful way to enjoy vacations..you make me wistful.
Fun write, and, considering that I dislike most rhyming work - tolerate it, at best - that means a lot.
sounds like a vacation I just came back from..lovely descriptive writing..thank you for posting ;)
very nice...I like it!
You brought the sea to life, rolicking, rolling wonderful life!
I like this ... especially the third stanza ... reminds me of the OBX. Also however, reminds me of what we are thoughtlessly doing to the seas.
Fun verse!
Jingle,
The sea beckons and it is so mysterious and challenging. Brilliant!
Very colorful...nicely done!
It was beautiful Jingle. As always....
Dear Jingle: Thank-you for the vacation by the sea! So refreshing your poem...
"motion in the ocean" is fabulous!
That is a beautiful picture, btw!
Cute poem:@)
I would love to be beside the sea right now. :)
I love the sea. Nice verse.
This just reminds me of my upcoming vacation in a couple of weeks to the Caribbean. I'll be sipping my favorite beverage under an umbrella & just relaxing (I might pen a few words of poetry too).
Fun post!
I so love that snails have curls.
I loved the way you repeated the first verse to tie it all together. It made me glad to be going on my holidays soon too!
Ah...adventures at sea and poetry too! Love it!
Oh my, it is time for me to plan a trip to the coast....
sigh...
I've been snorkeling but never scuba diving. Sounds wonderful, though!
=)
Loved this!~Ames
