BELOW THE SURFACE

The sunlight on the surface
Flashes back at me
As I look into the depths
Of the deep blue sea.

I see the fish down below
As they swim around
And the gently lapping waves
Are the only sound.

Sometimes a soaring seagull
Squawks as he flies by
Against a background of clouds
In a still blue sky.

Boats on the far horizon
Sails blown by the breeze
Some are out for just the day
Some bound for new seas.

Heading for new ways of life
Never to return
Hoping to find happy shores
Those which all men yearn.

Some will realize their dreams
Some travel for naught
Find the best they'll ever have
They've already got.

But man will go on dreaming
(No different with me)
As I look into the depths
Of the deep blue sea.

So good to dream on ... this is another captivating write that reaches out from the page/monitor and works like a hug of light.
