SCRIBBLES OF LOVE

SCRIBBLES OF LOVE

I have spied
A love
Letter...
It is written
In haste
Upon the
Parchment of
Sands
With the
Wind for
A quill
And waves
For ink!

Oh what a
Declaration of
Love
It is...

To the world
Above water
From the
Fish below...

How mellow!

Not all know
To read 
The writing
For, not all
Are versed
In the
Language 
Of
The Sea beings...

Those who
Are, they will
Understand 
Every scribble
On the Sand!

I happen to
Read
And feel
The letters
Written by
Fish out 
Of sight...

Yes, j know
What they say!

It is a 
Love plea
To us ...

We love you
Pray do not
Fish us...
Hunt not with
Hook and bait...

Let us live
So we might
Grow...

Dears,
Eat us not...
Intruding with 
Your boats
And nets
Into our world!

We are the
Love letter writers
Of the
Seashore!

Read our words
Heed our 
Love plea
From the
Sea to you
Human beings!
