A Couple of Poems for Golfo de Morrosquillo

Last year, our school trip was visiting Golfo de Morrosquillo. It was a truly beautiful place and it inspired my to write about it. I am quite clumsy with rhyming, but I felt nothing but poetry could describe the beauty I saw in that magical paradise.

Doorway to Infinity

I look ahead into the sea
The doorway to infinity
There is so much I cannot see
Of this wide ocean’s beauty

Pushing forth and pulling back
The tide goes on and on
Of all the times I’m loosing track
From daybreak to sundown

So immense, too large to know
So big and so profound
It's secrets hiding very low

Just swimming all around

A Sunset

Flaming on the blood streaked sky
The sun prepares to go
Shooting light from up so high
A hazy yellow glow

Scarlet, orange, crimson, gold
Extending all around
And in its midst pure shine it holds
Compare is hardly found

A tinge of color paints the sea
Reflected on the water
As it receives the final plea
To not go any farther

But sadly it leaves us behind
Leaving our small and sad world blind
