Unruffled and far
from the cacophony of the city,
lies a cosmos drenched in deep blues,
a galaxy stretching
a thousand feet underneath us.
Like a live mirror to the sky,
it glows and darkens
through star fishes
and birds with fins
floating around,
every corner opening
into a new shade of blue,
from sapphire to turquoise.
Like wonders creeping in
through the crevices of this barren land,
exists an abundance of beating hearts,
abundant hearts
throwing life into the sea
yet never lesser room
for more of them.
Like a treasure kept secret
from the evils and the ordinary,
it promises mysteries
unbeknownst to city dwellers,
too busy in the trivialities of everyday
to realize that
ultimate peace lies
in the depths of the sea.
Like a masterpiece
born out of accident
once in a blue moon,
and an artist
who cannot believe his eyes
for the magic he created,
God resides underwater
for the universe of the ocean is a creation
too perfect to be left bereft of him.
