deep waters of sparkling blue
her eyes hold oceans
Like a ship captain
I try to predict weather
as tides shift each day
These depths nourish me
I fish for thoughts with my lines
measuring each catch
I dive in calm seas
exploring dark mysteries
among hidden reefs
Navigating wrecks
where lesser pilots have crashed
sunken histories
On waves I’ll depart
voyage to see other lands
explore other seas
Catching other fish
charting unmapped shores again
as homesickness grows
Time to clear the decks
I’m ready to drop anchor
her harbour awaits
