On the ferry, waves beneath my gaze
Distant splashes, a wavy haze
A pod of whales, a dance so free
Playing in the waves, wild and glee
They jump and pop, their heads so bright
Fully present, in pure delight
No agenda, just a friendly hello
A smile crept on my face, don't you know
Their gentle nature, a moment's treat
A memory to hold, a heart to beat
Just a hello, a whimsical sight
Whales in the distance, pure joy in sight
Time stood still as they drew near
A fleeting magic, only the ocean can bring here
The ferry glides, but I stay behind
In tranquil awe, with the whales, I swim

A beautiful poem of merging with nature. Nicely worded and with great flow it has good rhyme and carries the reader along for the ride. Very nicely done. Whales are marvelous creatures and I have watched them surface and breach from the beach. When I ride the ferry I usually get to watch the dolphins and it is a treat.
