Scuba Diving

Scuba Diving Heavy SCUBA tanks As if flying in water Everywhere blue Dry mouth icky salt Regulator gets knocked out Can't breathe in water See a shark hiding Marveling in its stealth Hope it's not hungry Running our of air Better get to boat fast Stupid lungs why why? Brightly colored fish And coral everywhere I wish I could stay

Hi Merideth....This is a fantastic contemporary haiku from the first set to the last! I went scuba diving with you momentarily and it was a blast! Gwendolen

Personally, I love going to the Caribbean - but I have never gone scuba diving. Welcome to the "Soup" and keep up the fine poetry! Peace and Love Matthew Anish
