It took me by surprise
the baby mangroves reaching into the shallows
picking up the steps of dancing sunbeams
as the sea withdrew its blanket
to the far horizon
forever thrived on those shores
where new dreams could begin
the light covered me
together with the baby mangroves I reached for the dance
a seed was planted
it grew into a new beginning
to those forever shores I’ll return
form new friendships in the twists and turns
on a distant deserted coast
darkness lifted
and I saw the glorious light
at the end
Aw… baby mangroves… no photo?
You know Polly, I wish I did but it was one of those moments you just commit to memory. It was that sudden lift the has made me make my final decision to return there and start again…I will not be coming back. I figure third time lucky and now I’m aiming straight for that light! Promise you I’ll take a photo when I get there and I’ll post in on the blog 🙂
sounds like a beautiful and empowering moment…between the light and the mangroves…and the deisre it instilled in you to start fresh….enjoy your dance in the light….
oh i love the freedom in that dance… there’s such a hopeful, weightless feel in this.. here’s to new beginnings…
