Buoyancy of Oyster Blue Dreams



Floating
on a warm, oceanic wave
Tropical drowsiness drifting,
eyelids falling into corral reef fantasies
Oyster blue dreams,
aquatic Atlantis awaiting
Deep billowy yearning
to reach the lost heart treasure buried
A smile glowing in the undercurrent shadows
has a cerulean luminosity
It draws my fetching mind
to the sea floor core 
of your needful symbiotic design
Arising together to the surface
to greet the dawn sunlight
Buoyancy 
is a SOS message in a bottle
resiliency
Oyster blue dreams
has opened up my heart 
and swallowed all of my empty


This poem was inspired by
the talented poet Jannie Breedt's poem,
"Love Amputees"
