Muffled sounds in the distance of motors and creatures

Echoes of sounds morphed by the waves of the sea

Warm waters surround, suspended and weightless,

Almost helpless against the pull of the current.

Releasing control to nature, watching in amazement

The reef is alive and filled with multitudes of colors

Yellow and blue, purple and greens, fish abound

Red and iridescent corals bend in the flow

Thoughts of a racing mind drift away

as attention moves to closer things,

Peace can be found in this aquatic escape.

But one thing is always there wishing

these adventures one day we may share.
