TO DREAM WITH DOLPHINS

TO DREAM WITH DOLPHINS

in the sapphire shimmer blue
between our universe and theirs,
dolphins dance the ancient moves,
rhythms that enhance the abundance,
the driving force that pushes their seed to flower,
a wraith design drifting
across all the water worlds of space
seeking
 the perfect cove,
a peaceful reef
where coral blooms and kelp forms
shadows for their young to play hide and seek
and peek a boo with seahorses,
a peaceful bay of turquoise to amethyst glimmering
with the echoing song of their ancestors
as a lullaby for dolphin dreams...

jeannemarie, Such beautiful imagery that captures the essence of the life form, the quiet flamboyance of the playful sea dweller. When I was in the Navy, aboard a guided missile destroyer, whenever we were approaching, and got near enough to shore, you could go to the stern of the ship and see dolphins (or porpoises?) leaping out of the water, crossing diagonally across the ship's wake. I took many pictures (that unfortunately didn't survive the transition imposed by my divorce from my first wife.) and often just stood there in early twilight watching them and dreaming, perhaps dolphin dreams? Thank you so much for bringing those pictures back into my mind's focus. A beautifully written piece. take care...dan

I love the colorful story line that you painted as you told your tale. Beautiful shades that just cause my eyes to want to sleep restfully underneath a tawny palm on a white sandy beach at twi-light.
