At Rest With the Sea by Tolu’ A. Akinyemi

At sea, tranquillity spreads like God's eyes upon the earth.
Nature is a miracle;
the songs of the birds and the ducks
that colour the surface of the sea.

Nature is spreading its wings.
The blue sky is a silent melody.

A poet’s lens is on autofocus
to capture the magic of nature.
