By the Ocean Shore Villanelle


As he looks out upon the ocean shore There is a spectacle of crashing waves Seagulls that his eyes had fixed on, continuously explore. They dive down into the ocean roar Looking for fish, which they crave, As he looks out upon the ocean shore He wonders what dwells deep in its floor The sea creatures there must fight and misbehave Seagulls that his eyes had fixed on, continuously explore. As the birds arrive back with fish galore, He takes note of their courage and how they are so brave As he looks out upon the ocean shore He admires the boats in the distance, which he does adore And watches as some seagulls begin to lave Seagulls that his eyes had fixed on, continuously explore. He sits in the sand and remembers what he came there for He came to relax and to learn to behave As he looks out upon the ocean shore Seagulls that his eyes had fixed on, continuously explore.
