How are you liking the Ocean

I watched you
As the waves rolled by
Crashing on rocks
I watched you

I watched you
As you danced with the water
Your smile contrasting
I watched you

I watched you
On the edge of the shore
Toes in the water
I watched you

I watched you
With your polka-dot legs
Longer than class without you
I watched you

And one day I tried to join you
Your shoulder was warm
But the waves were cold
So I have to stand back and watch you
