Dolphins
Pushing through green waters
Symbol of joy
You leap from the depths
To touch the sky
Scattering spray
Like handfuls of jewels
Not caged by union rules
Unfettered by sales targets
No trains or planes to catch
Your time is set by the flow
Of the sea’s tides
And the moon’s glow
You give us images of ecstasy
That we lock away
Behind the doors of memory
For quiet moments
When released from our possessions
We dream of a freedom like yours
(Dolphins and man … equals?)
– Horace Dobbs
Speaking of fantasy poetry, this is a nice webzine: http://www.goblinfruit.net/
Fun! This had a lot of great imagery, and I was smiling at the end – we dream of being their equals, not the other way around. Love the icon, too.
Btw, you have me humming So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish now….
Very nice.
Dolphins are beautiful creatures.
