swimming in the sea
a wrinkly breast on a board
become brine chicken

Nudibranch
illuminated
lost in a watery space
a lil Nudibranch
My Beluga
Searching the Ocean
for the pearl Beluga Whale
my precious lady
We met in the depths
a little shocked look at first
she knew no Narwhal
Together we swam
named her princely unicorn
a touch of my tusk
Coming back to me
swimming straight towards her songs
we play together
Floating Away
Floating across the world
lost in a travel daydream
Longing to touch the cold sea
to feel black sand on the shore
Standing outside of my old self
the freezing sea and the green
Losing myself to a life in the Alps
to feel the snow fall from a chalet
Floating away to any place
You: My Pebble
I looked for you
between the hearts and the shapes
of pebbles found discarded on the
colourful sea shore.
Would you be a smooth pebble,
a sharp and blunt pebble,
or a pebble never to be found?
I chose my favourite pebble,
and it was you.
Two + The Sea
o’er the grassy sand dunes,
we went tumbling towards the soft sea.
you and me together,
two carefree lovers looking for free.
rolling until we stop,
out of breath from laughing with the sea.
you and I are running,
never stopping until you can see.
standing on the Skerry,
looking towards you, the azure sea
I don’t want to be free,
I want you to be a part of me.
Lost Nature
a virtual museum
the children watch humans from centuries ago
their attributes are
so different from anything the children understand
an uncontrolled sea
landscapes with rolling hills, trees, and sunlit animals
A natural freedom these children will never know
Micro Sea Poem
Have you ever seen the grass move like waves of the sea?
Even here, the sea is never far from you and me.
For Dad
a hot wind blows
through my clothes to burn my skin
as I think of you
resting in a place so far from the sea
so that you could
be close to the son you loved so much
reduced to ash
I think of you resting without adventure
and I wonder
if I should have given you to the sea
First to Last
From the first word
sinking into deeper water
Forgetting the world
submerged in saltwater
Feeling the wilting
swimming for the shore
Finish the last word
sorrow with empty shells
