Freedom Sees - Part 1


"Freedom Sees - Part 1"

Sailing
her clear 
Aqua Green 
oceans
floating 
mysterious exotic
fragrant 
Dark Pink 
Yellow Frangipani Petals
surround her boat, 
gifts sent  
from the big fat bellied trees
in the Queen's Land,
standing fixated, 
rooted to the spot
they aren’t going anywhere
fast, that’s their lot on
Departure Shores,
waving their 
confetti dreams
at the Bamboo Queen
sailing adventuress
standing tall now
not down on her knees.

She’s surveying her pearl beds
Giant Burnt Orange
Lilac Lavendar 
Deep Emerald Green
Astropecten Articulatus
accompanying Royalty,
they are far from their 
familial home.
Hippocampus.
Syngnathidae, 
Olive, Ultra-Marine Blue.
Mate for life.
Sea Dragons. 
This is true.

Golden Glistening 
Burning Ball 
the Sun’s 
beckoning ascension, 
light beams,
dapple the surface
there is abundant 
life underneath
this, her verdant 
Sea Bed Circus.

Crystal clear deep waters
full of mothers and daughters
the nexus electric current
for her virtues
her sins,
her babbling 
ranting minions,
their downloading zone
go-with-the-flow.
A million zephyrs
cut the air,
they are calling HER
“HOME”.
