Key To The Endless Sea

In the great big wide-open sea with all its' vast array of spectacular colors, you'll find a bountiful arrangement of wondrous creatures.  Like a magnificent painting beginning to emerge on a brilliant blue canvas the colors come alive and take on a brilliance of their own.  The red glow of the sun leaves its' spectacular mark on the dark deep blue canvas adding it's captivating highlights.  The chalky white tips of the waves as the roaring wind hits them just right makes the artist feel the intensity and the movement of the water.  Floating endlessly on top of the sea is the dark green seaweed clinging to each wave, floating ever so slowly with the change of the tides.  Far beneath the sea, an abundance of child-like sea creatures come alive and create their own playground of imaginative beauty. 

     Nearby, "Sonny The Stingray" glides effortlessly in the fresh cold water with a unique gentle motion known only to him.  "Amanda The Albatross" lies quietly on the shoreline with her rainbow of colors flashing in the sun.  "Christian The Crab" opens and closes his shell beneath the sand spitting bubbles of air onto the rough wet surface above.  "Sebastian The Shrimp" coiled up from the intense heat of the sun as he slept quietly on the shore awaiting the next surge of water.  Nearby "Josh The Jellyfish" floated calmly in the water with all of his crystal clear splendor.  "Mitzi The Manatee" and "Patti The Porpoise" joined joyously together as they glided in and out of the fast moving waves. 

     Clamoring about the deep ocean floor is "Randy The Red Lobster" kicking up sand as he shuffles along.  Along the outer edge of the waves lies "Kim The Kelp" relaxing peacefully as she floats with the endless tide towards the shore.  Swimming nearby "Marianne The Mackerel" flung herself far across the water in search of unsuspecting bus to eat.  "Ron The Riptide" was circling fast with all his strength and fury as "Darren The Dolphin" rode the waves into shore like a body surfer riding the surf.  "Andrea The Albatross" dined on a large silver fish as she sat perched on a nearby sailboat.

     Lining the shoreline flopped thousands of silver grunion patiently waiting for the spectacular grunion run back out to sea.  All these wondrous creatures in all their abundant beauty made it onto my picturesque canvas, which I will cherish for years to come.  Every picture tells a story and each one holds the "Key To The Endless Sea!"
