A coastal community gathers as ocean and people meet in a moment of ceremony, gratitude, and connection.

Written in flowing, rhythmic verse, the poem moves through playful ocean life, the whale's journey, and a quiet unfolding of events along the shoreline. The tone is gentle, imaginative, and reflective-inviting young readers into a world where nature and people are closely connected.
