7 Praise the LORD from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
I watch the waves in the distance, hoping for a glimpse of a sea monster
And ponder all that life down deep
All those colours invisible in indigo darkness
Alive in creations overflow
And it is all too big-
Unfathomable
.
Cuttlefish
Alien flashing transparency
Reduced somehow to parrot food
In another world
.
Whale
So big that movement seems tectonic
Impossible
.
And me- eyes watering in a wind whipped in from the arctic
Am a grain of blown sand
Dancing
