Ocean Views

By drasticdaydreams

I've seen brighter girls
With bleaker futures
​Watch the waves wear down the rocks
​But even they, on sunny days
Might dance along the docks
​These words I say are words I pray
Do not let the tides dismay
​For steady rhythyms aren't a bore
Magic's found in shells ashore.

    Lovely poem with a lot of fun rhyming stuff going on. Is this based on a type of poetic structure? I feel like it is, but I'm too ignorant to know it XD Anyways, I enjoyed this piece. It's short, has a flow, and contains a nice message.
