In Awe

Today, l went whale watching I was left in complete awe The magnificence of these beautiful creatures Hugged my being to the core Their amazingly huge yet graceful bodies Playfully breaching into the air Slapping their pecs in the water To their own grandeur… oblivious and unaware It was a truly special sight to behold Nature in its rawest and purest form To see such majestic creatures Engulfed my being with a joyful warmth

I’d love to see that; Annie would love to see dolphins…. I guess we’ll both be unfulfilled. Glad for you, to have had that experience…. Just you wait til the men from ZOG come to me… I’ll sure write about that! ;-)

By the way, I am a Pisces! LOL A Fish Called Pangie….))) You do not have to catch uo with me, I do mean that. Read a famous poet instead.that would be far better, like…”Splendor in the Grass” …………..by Wordworth or ee cummiings.., Merci, Pangie .. by Wordsworth!

Wonderful! I went whale watching in Alaska. They thought the humpback went down for a while, when all at once the ocean opened and the magnificent creature breached. I was in awe! I’v never screamed out in glee like that..oh my. Nature goes about its ordinary business while we watch in wonder!
