Love of water in everyone's heart,
Seeing the ocean is usually the start.
It draws people from near and far,
Just as dreamy as a distant star.
.

Sailing above much is unseen,
What lies below only a dream.
As of now much is unknown,
Can make one feel very alone.
.

In its whole a vast expanse,
Has seen much remembrance.
Ships and planes lost at sea,
Loved ones lost for eternity.
.

Forever alive and always changing,
Many delights and lots of warnings.
Most of us drawn to the seashore,
They’re some who chose to explore.
.

Marine biologists try their best,
Relying on their funding requests.
Inner earth they doth seek,
Trying to take a little peek.
.

Much is unknown but they don't care,
Yearning to explore where no other dare.
Among the Beauty thats all around,
Forgotten are the dangers abound.
.

Mysteries still surround the deep,
Treasures found you may keep.
Inner earth waiting to be discovered,
Many things still not recovered.
.

Not always finding what you seek,
It's not a quest for the meek.
Beautiful and mystical as our birth,
So is it with Inner Earth.
