Princess of The Depths

Grant Hope #179

Wake up for me
wake up for me
princess of the sea

In foam green open abdomen cloaked
bright purple toes
face awash in the reflections of current
soaked lips and flowing hair coral red
floating up from the deep
a natural spotlight seems to highlight each bit of air from nostril flairs
glistening stars and glittering shells on her belly

a sunken ship with wristband green tourmaline (toor-muh-lin) gemstones marks her home
twinkling gold ribbon slings from the back of her cape
to the motionless floor below

With her first gasp of air
she looks around and up to the light
dancing invitingly in otherworldly underwater delight
her hair seems to grow longer and fuller in strand as she rivetingly spins
imagining how submerged blossoms stay in place while she sleeps
pale white and green lines
move in serene tandem while reaching out to touch the banding rainbow deep
