Bali
Transcendence
effervescent silence
almost visible...
flash of colours
shapes
in the play of dappling
light.
indecipherable shapes
of a once proud ship
vanishing now
beneath swirl of anemones,
sparkle of browsing
fish.
shifting mosaic
precisely repeated shapes
schooling against slanting rays
of aqua light.
Tiny faces
reflecting my own curiosity.
A ghostly shoal of
silver-sides
hovering before me
a vast sliding wall
circling upon itself
spiralling through
itself
aurora marinalis,
as wonder grows.
joy and wonder
alive in my eyes
my eyes too small to contain them
and I
so lost within in my eyes
only aching lungs
can bring me back. |
