Premium Member The Perennial Diver
Bubbled in a young man's breath, I glided along the weedy and rock strewn bottom just out from shore, a companion to fish and crustacean, a finned, neoprene clad denizen of the deep. The limit of my lungs made me gorge on this underwater world in the brief time a held breath could last. I packed so much into mere minutes to nourish a lifetime. I...

Premium Member The Specious Criminal Trial
Which fish The scuba diver Is going after? The big one Or the small one? Which sheriff Is on trial today? The petty one Or the pretty one? Everyone must have its day In the Kangaroo Court. Real justice is not a myth; It never creates descent or grief. It a fact that it is easier to execute The innocent resident Than to prosecute The corrupt superintendent. All thieves must be handcuffed. A...

Premium Member Courage
Ask an ocean cliff diver, eager and daring, How thrilling it is, the ascent and air diving, The arms stretched wide, like wings fluttering, Plunging into the depths, like a whale's splash echoing, But without courage, mere fantasies we will be sharing Ask a ground squirrel, scurrying through its maze, With nuts in its grasp, the squirrel...

Premium Member The Coral
Sometimes one has to retreat From the controversial world To find an inner calm To stay deep in the sea like a coral Smiling all the way Dancing softy Listening to the soft flowing of the sea Enjoying the calmness of the sea Watching the wonderful muddling of schools of fish A sudden emerge of a diver will bring An admiration...

Premium Member The Alleys of Virtual Municipalities
The Alleys of Virtual Municipalities By David J Walker I love walking the rutted roads Running in hidden groves Through the residential jungles the rambling backyard boulevards dividing the single file plies of dirt and gravel A straight line between Picket fenced fortresses of Flimsy privacy providing Trash truck Sunday drivers with a A No...

Premium Member The Scuba Diver Meets His Mermaid
In the ocean she swam that day, pure as snow. She was gorgeous, and her white tail was aglow. He was confident, thinking his scuba gear was sound. Never realizing he was in trouble all the way around. She had an inkling that someone was going to be in trouble So she rounded up the sharks, and locked them up...

Fear Diver
Run, run, can't catch me Little bitty spider up in the tree Run, run, waterfall, flowing for me Paranoia, everywhere, can't scare me Run, run, active imagination Why haunt me Scare myself to death Scared to breathe Running from a spider hiding in a tree Running for the waterfall To end the racing thought Trying to chance off all the fear I was taught Run, run, climb...

The Scuba Diver
The Scuba Diver we look down signal frantically ‘come up’, though it is already too late he dances wide eyed with ecstasy as the nitrogen tickles his cells anemones cling to the steep rock walls fish feed and dawdle incuriously we peer through our tiny windows into the ink black sea as he goes free wheeling down, down, a rictus of laughter on his face...

God's Plan For Diver Dan
Being environmentalist scuba diver's we ferried our boat out east of the Farallon Islands, in the waters by the Golden Gate Bridge we ended up scuba diving, awestruck by the great humpback whale entangled in the quagmire, Noticing she was bogged down by 100s of lbs of crab traps, entangled with line rope round her whole body way up to...

Another Sky Diver
Another Sky Diver Two shrill little beeps in my phone.. An incoming message into the Whatsapp messenger in my phone…. Pick up my trusted phone and quickly finger traced open the Whatsapp messenger… Not to disappoint, there was that familiar symbolic mark of a message in the messenger.. A quick little impatient tap, the screen immediately switched...
