Somali waters are not safe as pirates are growing in the ocean like sea weeds. Thanks to the American war ships for taking time to patrol the risky sea waters of Somalia.
Ocean of love
Ocean of peace
Ocean of serenity
The Indian Ocean
Please listen to me
Listen to me dear ocean
On the Somali waters
Pirates are on the rise
So too are waste dumpers
Bring down their vessels
Hit them at the sharp peaks
Of your shining mountains
Into your large belly
Please swallow them deep
Suck them into your depths
Digest and devastate them
Spit them out in the blue waters
And along the shores of beauty
Let their bodies be disposed
Let all the people see their remains
Let future pirates see their destiny
But be careful of your attacks
Other vessels are using the waters
There are UN humanitarian ships
Ferrying food to the war victims
There are also American war ships
Patrolling the unsafe Somali waters
They are war ships in a war of peace

Please swallow them deep

Something Mother Ocean should do to all who do not respect Her!
