Moonlit Bay

In the moonlit bay

The moon spins silky threads

Out over the water

The shadows leap in the water

They're dolphins

The moonlight dapples their backs

In the darkness they look almost human

The water rushes over their backs

And they leap…

For joy

Faint ripples echo where they have been

I dive in

To be in their world

Forever leaping

For naught but…

Joy.
