aciesanimaSat on the deck yesterday when a storm rolled in to break the heat of the day. Such was the atmosphere that I let my mind settle and threw around a few phrases that started grouping themselves into what follows:
Ocean-Sky
There's an ocean in the sky.
Clouds betray currents that underlie
Sweeping swathes of grey
And sapphire seas of day.
There's an ocean in the sky.
With waves and swells and tides.
Sunset ripples that mesmerize,
With reflections trapped inside.
There's an ocean in the sky.
Though soft and indistinct,
It speaks in flaming streaks,
Voices ringing through the peaks.
Ocean-Sky

Sweeping swathes of grey
And sapphire seas of day.
There's an ocean in the sky.
With waves and swells and tides.
Sunset ripples that mesmerize,
With reflections trapped inside.
There's an ocean in the sky.
Though soft and indistinct,
It speaks in flaming streaks,
Voices ringing through the peaks.
