Flying Above the Water

fly me away
high above the waves
 
looking down into the depths 
jellyfish cresting waves
minnows in the shallows
silvery slicks of scales
salted air dotted 
with sprinkly sand
 
painted sea shells
crabs coddling the sand, 
sealing pacts with the water.
 
eels electric in nature
spiraling driftwood
winds whip like cream up around my body.
 
Heaven's scent
glowing ringlets reflected
in the water
 
Stars in charge 
coming home to a place to be.
