Deep Sea Sky Blue


"Deep Sea Sky Blue" 

the contented life
rises and falls
bedded 

the treasure chest
is touched briefly
inside a shell opens
constricted mind
of heart swallows
the bends, 
it is found
wanting, so 
releases 
the fast, 
changeling
embryo soul, 
le enfant terrible
feeling the rips
like selkie 
walls of skin
cool and warm
currents sucking
dark and light
kicking out
the within, 

a transparent 
circle rises
still life
perpetually 
repeating 
on carnate 
incarnates
unstill  

the unseen 
surfaces 
and surveys
the contented life
how it 
rises and falls
bedded in shades
and shadows
of gently rising 
and plunging 
azure

outside 
from within 

deep sea
sky blue

Shells open to a new found fantasy...floating along in your sea

Poetry is imbued with the stuff of fantasy and reality, madness and sanity. I’m in good company here. ;) p.s. while you are floating, watch out for the sharks... sometimes you have to kiss the tiddlers and throw them back in the soup.
