ocean below drenched in navy blue dye

letting each wave sweep past, one by one

drifting through mellow warmths of July

eyes glue to the mountains hiding afar

neatly seated, but noticeably large.

What do you perceive in this kind of view?

A haunting puzzle, tragedy awaits

to swallow your cries in a fog of blue

eager for murder — and to suffocate

rising floods tumble over helpless gates

some observe the sea in a different way.

They see aqua glowing under amber lights

its hush, placid sounds that can heal one’s mind

a gust of wind shuddering up their spine

as they scan the golden waters

and serene dolphins trailing behind.
