10/12/18 - The Dream of a Diver

Flushed by the cold as I leap into it,

Bobbing around before my buddy comes,

Then we descend into darkness beneath us,

In such darkness we see, dances light.

All around us float a thousand lanterns,

Still below us stream a million cords,

Quickly darting, see we tiny creatures,

In and out of coloured walls.

It’s a beautiful world down where there’s no air,

A world that is cold yet without any care.

We drift around there and then when it’s time,
With one last look, we go up, we go home.
