One Deep Breath - More bodies of water

These are pretty much what came from my trip to Hawaii. I didn't take any photographs, but I did take away some pictures in my head.

Royal blue abyss
Elegant shark
Piroettes

Cold deep water holds
Ocean's sanctuary
Sunken volcano

Green turtle comes near
Colorful wetsuit looks good,
Maybe jellyfish?

Black volcanic rock
Salt water eddies
Tidal pool treasures

Sunrise surfer
Riding the morning light
Tracing lace topped waves

Earthquake shaking
Gold sand into blue waters.

Catching deep sea waves,
Cold waters caress
Hot sun above.

On the shore...

Ocean's cold embrace,
Sensuous like a lover.
Carry me to shore.

Sitting on the rocks.
Salt fish tang on the cool wind
Blowing white waves in.

Seagulls call shrilly.
Dropped ice cream and sand
Are kissed by the waves.

Night comes so gently.
Lavender skies touch the sea.
I linger to watch.
