The Sea

The Sea

A Poem by Sherriff
"

Delve deep beneath the waves.

"
Do you see what I see?
I see the sea, it's beauty
the fragile insecurities
I see a frame, devoid of limitations
minor fractions of curiosity

Do you see what I see?
A vast sea and an inclination
a dabbled blue incandescent complacency
I see a patchwork sky
pinpricks of unfiltered light
but below that surface, suffice it to say, life
of all kinds, small kinds,
yet we cannot survive

Shallow, the sapphire depths glisten like a prize
and further out still, pockets so deep
darker heavier blue sanctuaries that hide beyond me
glinting reflections caught in my eyes
refractions of light caught between sea and sky

and for that one small fact I might slip below the tide.
