My husband had this happen. He was swimming with an instructor wannabee who got them into trouble. Very scary! She ran out of air. My husband had extra. Husband was exhausted getting back on ship. Then the real instructor made him take the fall so the lady could get her certification. He never went back on that guy’s ship!

Hi Kim, I know it had to be scary for your husband. It’s a blessing he lived to tell the story. I appreciate that you stopped by-Alexis

An image in every line: the place, the panic, the why--superbly evocative--expertly executed, Alexis.

Your poem comes with a lesson attached to it, Alexis...unlike fish we cannot take the sea for granted! Scuba diving is one such case where lack of oxygen can lead to panic which in turn can lead to "the bends". ~ Regards, my friend // paul
