''Depth of Doom''

Bottomless ocean speak your rhythmical path.
Beautiful world if only a glimpse embedded in my mind.
I shall capture the essence of unknown in detail.
I sigh a slow breath.
Yet danger may soon approach.
For I will not stay but in this moment short lived.
In the depths free from sound.
Vivid sight of fish that stir larger than man could imagine.
Strengthen me,devour me not.
Oh' stellar shot....

Kacey- Great rhythm for this free verse about Goliath. Carolyn will love how you address the ocean with such respect. I know these poor fish were over caught back a few decades ago but now I wonder how many are falling ill to the sickened ocean we so shamelessly polute? You are an awesome poet and thanks for reading a bit of mine. I think this is so reverently written like a verse from the Bible.
