there are oceans of blue sky within
one deep inhale of the ancient salt water sky
and you are capsized into this world
gently you are breathed through the ebb and the swell
you — have lived here forever
while this world has unfailingly carried you

that poem works so well with the image.
Its a beautiful poem. Elizabeth Adams is fast becoming my favorite poet :-)
:) thank you Amy
this is just wonderful, i must have missed it when you posted it…. would LOVE to be there! (soon!)
Thank you sweetie. I actually wrote that before I went to Maui and found that the waters in that image and where I wound up swimming were nearly identical.
