Short Diver Poems

As deep blue waters hug a school of fish
Diver is in a panic
Oxygen tank is low...

New age hurdy gurdy on the fiddle,
lotus pose squatter spookily enthrals,
Sultan nail tip sky diver of the fretboard...

Off the cliff,
rocks below,
kiss the ocean
as you go,
high and wide
arc extends,
overlapping
camera lens,
sun flare,
blinding sight,
flash of hope
     and
  endless 
    night....

The lady's play Metal.
in overdrive.
They raved Holy Diver,
neath a Burning Witch sign.
Hey, as for Me,
I liked their stripe's.
The Witch's raved Dio,
in overdrive.

coming up for air,
                          the diver forgot what he was saying
                                                                              he talks to fish

Mega Grouper slips past bait fish

Sets his sights on a bigger dish

  “Oh my,” says the diver

  “Am I on Survivor?”

Clings to hope on a prayer and wish

     Danny Diver is no belly-flopper
     Only this time his dive came a-cropper 

        Danny started out fine
        But he’d drunk too much wine 

      He's motionless in the rescue-copter

There once was a diver called Trish,
Who met an enormous jewfish.
She was dwarfed by its head,
And then, drooling, she said,
‘I’d like to see you on my dish.’

* The goliath grouper is also known as the jewfish...

I will become a conqueror when I grow up the young girl said.
With her lovely freckled face, fresh emerald eyes, and hair of red.
Or a race car driver
Or a scuba diver
Maybe even a professional football player or a flower bed....

Although I’m breathing oxygen,
Barely a third is sinking in.
I dive into the deep dark blue
Opening my lungs to you.
I’m lost in blackness losing health
And push deeper into myself.
I drown in thoughts and memories
Of what I had outside the sea.
Out upon the gentle sand,
I had your love; I had your hand....

There's beauty in the smallest pearl--
the darkest grain of sand--
the cry of eagle and of lark--
the curve of sea and land--
I have seen it in the human heart --
within it, folded down:
beauty --deep as could be hid--
the Pearl Diver found.

A scuba diver rents a boat
The driver of the boat goes
into the deep water
There he prepares himself
To be ready for the big dive
Then jumps into the deep water



Seeing some fish fish-he swims
Being side by side enjoys 
          the fun
When the divers tires
he returns to the boat
To take him to the shore
       once more...

I’m what they call
Scourge of the sky
From clouds I fall
Don’t ask why

No matter blood and gore
I am the survivor
Through Carnage I soar
The holy diver

Blazing wings beat
All battles halted
Feeling disapproving heat
Shining light, exalted

Wave of judgment flows
To hell I am your driver
I am your pain and woe
The holy diver...

Tucked in a   little corner of the world
Like a shell that hides within itself a pearl
All can see, yet none to know 
That such a simple thing a treasure holds
And like a diver whose relentless search
Deep into the oceans heart would lurch
Unyielding to return, for only he knows its worth
So must be ye, who wish to know me
For I am the wisdom of the world...

The high diver climbed the ladder over 100 feet high
and then proceeded to perform a very graceful swan dive.
Plummeting to the bottom quickly he plunged
into what was supposed to be a slightly dampened sponge.
Upon impact the high diver instantly died
because his girlfriend's jealous husband rung the sponge out bone dry.
The husband has been charged with homicide....

Depression engulfs me into its depths and drowns me in its sorrow,
an ocean so deep that I fear I will never reach the bottom.
Instead, I just swim aimlessly like a scuba diver who is running out of air but can't remember which way is up.
I flail trying to find my way, but I can never swim out of its darkness.
When will I  be able to come up for air? I am drowning in this feeling...

Unique
Elite swimmer
brown, tailless, Pied-billed Grebes
can float, dive or simply submerge
graceful

dark eyes
cinnamon tone
heard but not often seen
rear end feet, lobed toes, poor flier
gawky

small bird
solitary
widespread, but rarely seen
dramatic silent crash-diver
decent

patient
near to nest bowl
I hide in marsh water
to capture still clear reflection
I wait...

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...
