Mysteries of the Sea

Carried away on some long forgotten sea vessel, we drift, not so
much by error, as purpose.

Extravagance swims by in the silvery form of a sea creature; To me,
foreign territory.
Yet, he knows each dip and wave as if he
created it...
Reigning an endless kingdom of eel, dolphin, and seaweed.

Thousands of miles, this watery palace, stretching end to end, waving
and rolling along with no desire of destination, yet transports me from
place to place-always sure.

Refuge to a vast array of beauteous danger, lore and forgotten souls;
Its immense depth their presence shields with passionate anger.

Yet, to the unfortunate wayfarer, seeking exposure for its treasures, a
thundrous rage initiates that soul to join the rest in the horrible,
wonderful
grave.

Returning to its former state of peaceful, guarded beauty, it beckons
the universe to gaze from afar, and wonder only in her heart about the
mysteries of
the sea.
