The Starfish
The Starfish
He had the strength
To stand up tall
For the first time ever in his life
He saw the bright sun
He felt it’s shining heat
He touched the sea breeze
He smelt the scent of the sea
His prongs wedged deep into the sand and swaying sea
He took tiny baby steps
He waded through the deep sea waves
He had the stamina
Only for a moment he lived this new life
His prongs soon gave way
Returning to his watery home
Under the deep blue sea of waves
His bed on the moving sands
His food of seaweed and pebbles of gems and pearls
The beautiful fish
His neighbours
His home under the wild ever changing blue sea
