awakening

the sea is large
its color right

rolling into my
open arms

the sea is large
it spreads and sparkles
like juice
on a cut pineapple

the sea is
the skin of a drum
humming to its own beat
under an orange marabou sky

my why
shriveled and fell away
along with how and whether
long ago

the sea is large today
its color right

This is lovely~
And as many times as I have been to the sea- it is often a different color depending on the day, the time, or the weather...
and the color is always right!

Enjoyed this! Thank you :)
