THE DEEP

in awe; BREVITY POEM

THE DEEP

Time to time my mind roams

Place of awe

Beneath cerulean blue sea

Fancy beasts of a color wheel

Spirit chills

My core drifts in sync

Author's Note

This is a Brevity poem; where does your mind wander from time to time?

My mind wandered to deep sea diving and the spectacular colours of coral, sadly in decline in some parts of the world. I also thought about the Titanic and other ships lying on the ocean floor. So mysterious and haunting to see them in that state. Last year we visited the Mary Rose, Henry VIII's flag ship which went down in the English Channel with huge loss of life. Now restored and on view in a museum. Your brevity certainly allowed me to travel Betty.

Dearest Chris, I am so glad I was able to take on a mysterious journey to the deeps and to bring back some memories too. Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, as always I appreciate it so much! Truly

Happy to read you Betty. Always a pleasure.

I love the sort of dreaminess and floating feeling of this piece. Whenever my mind wanders, I start rhyming things and that's kind of how poetry just happens! I absolutely love the imagery here, it's so blue and it's full of imagination. The colors here are abundant and vivid, and so magical. This piece is full of so many things under the sea. I have to say, for all places for your mind to wander, the sea can be both a beautiful and horrifying place.

I think that's why people love the sea, it has all the answers.
Maybe that's why there's so many wrecks under the sea, lost souls waiting to re-emerge.

Thanks for reading and commenting Paul, nothing like the deep blue at least to fantasize!

Time to time, My mind wanders, Amidst the colorful butterflies, colorful souls and in that imaginary world that my heart has created with no worries, but love and only love.
Thanks for giving me a minute Betty to think over what i feel.
And thanks for sharing this.

You’re very welcome Anu!

to the wreckage of a heart, lying dormant at the bottom of a deeply blue sea.
Blue sea, blue heart, blue pen writes fathoms below the sun.
