Mystical waves stir nature's breeze.
Inhaling purity; basking tropical sun
my blood dances while on shore.
Until I dive below;
then the briny drink caresses this
earth soul; one with her water spirit.
I am part of the ocean's vast utopia
as I glide, the silky wet swells
of glorious deep.

This is a very nice piece that encompasses the beauty of the ocean. You don't need a lot of words or lines or anything to portray beauty, and you have proved that beautifully with the sheer simplicity of your work. I liked how you incorporated a spiritual essence of the water into your poem; it was playful and serious at the same time, and it was very enjoyable. Thank you for sharing this with us ^_^
