Poem
"The Flow" I walked into the Ocean today the Wind was wild whipping up the waves like lemonade white horses riding into shore I tread water, the Aquamarine was a washing machine While someone else’s kids raced by me out to the break the wind bit my face, I submerged myself then resurfaced I became sad when I thought about the Fraz I swam out to the deep I was very brave forgot about monsters with sharp teeth dreamt they were all fast asleep bellies full of other dreamers Sharp Teeth were nowhere near my feet, They were lying supine snoring at the bottom of the deep Balmoral was a breeze I was free feeling guilty it was me in your sea I floated on my back and just went with the flow had a little cry, the Ocean took all that salt in there was nowhere better for it to go the Sun burnt me up 3rd degree inside real slow The Seagulls circled above grinning Yellow crested cockatoos in the big Moreton Bay Fig like tiny pterodactyls screaming, water crystal clear angel fish, puffers and blue bottles spinning always near One can only love One can never save But there is the grace of forgiving I walked into the ocean today I thought about being brave Thought about visiting the Mermaid’s Cave another day another night Finding starfish hiding under treasure rocks Find Silverfin and take his fin Fairy Bower and swim in your Fair Light (LadyLabyrinth/2019)"HOME" "Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is HOME." https://youtu.be/cbnS-1ZQPD0 https://youtu.be/lf_b_OCKL6I https://youtu.be/b6d3ghgZuMI "The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned."
