Dear Ocean By Saadi Dear Ocean, Thank you for being in my Life Ocean Thank you for allowing us to swim in you catch fish go surfing have fun snorkel much more I love the warm tingle you give me when I see you You are Incredibly&nbsp; Big. I cannot see all of you Blue Aqua I appreciate how you take care of the animals inside you How do you do it all?

Here is my reflection about my poem. The hard part about writing this poem was trying to find the right words.&nbsp;Sometimes the word would be too long and would not sound good.&nbsp;Or it would be too short and not sound good.&nbsp;But eventually I found the right words.&nbsp;One piece of advice is to not give up.&nbsp;I say that because if you cannot find the right words or the poem doesn’t sound good don’t give up.&nbsp;Eventually you will figure it out.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hello my name is Saadi and today I will be sharing my poem.&nbsp;My poem is called "Dear Ocean."&nbsp;I was inspired to write it by a poem called "Dear Sky" by Naomi Shihab Nye.&nbsp;She used descriptive language, and it was like she was literally writing a letter to the sky.&nbsp;Here is my poem.
