THE COLORS OF THE OCEAN

by Alessandra Scevola



There was once a girl who lived in the sea
She was smart, pretty and her soul was free
Her name was Aqua and loved the color blue
Although by looking around, it was the only one she knew

Aqua decided to go on a journey to see what she could find
To escape her boring home and leave that blue behind
She saw a cliff ahead and decided to go deep
Moving her tail until she heard someone weep

She looked around
To find the origin of that sound
But all she could see was black
Until she saw a bright light coming out of a crack

She moved towards it and followed the cries
Which grew bigger and bigger until she saw green eyes
What a beautiful color she thought, wanting to go near
Until a shining drop floated towards her, resembling a tear

Aqua asked those emerald eyes what had made them sad
Thinking that if she knew she could make them glad
The green eyes looked at her, big and round in shape
And said that they were tired of all this black and that they could not escape

She then had an idea that sprouted in her mind
And so she asked the eyes "want to come in this adventure of mine?"
The jade eyes agreed, still a little worried though
And before they knew it they were ready to go

After swimming upward for quite a while
They reached the blue ocean and traveled in style
The green eyes however weren't just that anymore
But a green colored fish that was ready to soar

Their next adventure took them far away
To the coral reef where they met a stingray
After a little chat Aqua asked for directions
And then observed the vivid colors of that other dimension

It was unlike anything they had ever seen
There was red, purple and all the colors in between
She had so many to choose from, she could not pick
So she asked for the fish's opinion, who gave one real quick

The fish said "why not have more than one?"
So she looked for some reasons against it and she found none
So she took out here clam diary, which was empty and new
And she wrote down three colors red green and blue
