Sea of Silence
Sea of Silence
Into a sea of silence
I plunge…
Hidden depths—
I sink deeper and deeper.
Beds of coral reefs
of infinite colors…
schools of fish
sleek by—
I wonder who
is truly looking
at whom.
Down, down I go
and still no bottom.
I hear the sounds
of the underworld
as my lungs fill
with breath—a gentle inhale
and I continue
my descent.
Lighter and lighter
I’m becoming—
letting-go of the
surface.
AND-now…
there is nothing
to SEE,
but my eyes
take in
EVERYTHING.
Slowly, I exhale
and I’m lifted
by the bubbles
rising overhead.
Vivid and tranquil sky on water colors, I loved the silence you write about under the surface
Thank YOU for joining me…
