Ice water strikes warm blood
Veins sizzling, steam rising with the sun
Waves tumble me
Salt water in my mouth
Laughing, I whoop and plunge
Exhilarated
Like a child
Over and over
The waves scoop
Carry me up, over, under
Weightless and free
Body rendered sprite
Effortlessly
Sea foam womb
A mothers embrace
Sun bursts from the cloud
Golden sparkles plume
Beauty
Steals my breath
She can have it
A small repayment
For such wonderment
*and what a perfect death it would be..or transition perhaps, a far better word.
