Tales From The Sea


I am terrible when it comes to poetry

 I have a lot of Math homework, and attempting a poem sounded quicker than writing an analysis.

Although, I will probably be proven wrong and I will wish that I had done the analysis. I am hoping for the best.

Tales From The Sea

You are such a deceptive yet seasoned clam
Holding pearls prisoner, created from the sand
Using it as bait to lure in a curious girl, which I am

Although so unaware of the plans I conspire
You feel powerful beneath the ocean floor
Soon it will be me who defeats your empire

“Hello, Hello”, you call, “Let me show you something grand
Dutifully I approach to see what you have to show
Gently you place a shiny pearl into my salty wet hand

“Isn’t it pretty?” spoke the clam, “My creation of the sand?”
Eyes wide, full of utter glee, I hold the crest of the sea
“Silly clam… I will never return what I hold in my hand”

“Wait!” screeches the clam “Please return the ocean’s crest!”
The clam meant to guard it from curious girls like myself
The deceptive clam failed his own ridiculous test

The Clam not as deceptive as he thought he might be
The clam meant to guard it from curious girls
Too bad he lost the crest of the almighty sea
Failed the whole sea to a curious girl like me
