Star of the Sea

courtesy of earthweal

 Star of the sea you move freely
no cluttered thoughts to anchor
you down

reliant on your feelings
and intuition to guide you
 through the motions of life

experiencing your environment
through different eyes

your outstretched arms creating
poetry each day...through
rhythm and movement

there is strength in the ability
to re-generate healing from the
unexpected upsets in the journey

traveling through time and space
touching everything in your pathway
leaving particles of yourself
 as you slowly disintegrate
into the depth of the sea

author's note:  This photo is haunting
from the depth of the sea to the heavenly
stars, wishing you peace in your quest...

  11. I love those starfishes, they just are there, moving slowly until they are gone, but I guess if you are a clam, the starfish is a formidable foe.
