GULF PRAYER

It was a Gulf of water

that became an ocean of oil

turning from blue to brown,

like it was liquid soil.

And all the creatures

could not see what it

would end up to be,

including me.

We closed our eyes

to remember how beautiful

it was a Gulf of water.

You see you can't walk on water.

And as the nightmares begin to end,

we will wait and wait and hope in pray.

The Gulf, The Gulf will live another day.
