Misty seas under a rising sun Mighty waves crashing loudly From afar the white sandy beaches Look like sparkling crystals Blue skies meet with blue seas Going on as far as the eyes can see Peace abides there when seas are calm But days like today are like the unknown Misty seas under a rising sun Each day is new & unique Like the creatures that abide within it are different You never know what you will get Calm waters that sooth the soul Crashing waves that bring it to life No matter what you are blessed with It's beauty surrounds and ingulfs you It's misty seas under a rising sun
