Flight on Waters Edge
Opaque tepid waves idly, furl
Glittering scales reflecting sun's light, curl
Winding, swaying lazily beneath
Crimson red eyes angled knowing,
Glowing, contemplating light above
Rays of gold pierce downwards
Like wavering long fingers reaching
Gently, lovingly caressing scaled form
A smile cast upon reptilian teeth
Eyes cast heavenwards she sways
She sways on her way
With each powerful thrust of her serpent frame
She gains speed
the waters around her growing warmer
Growing brighter, lighter
A great crash and roar breaks through morning air
Silver and blue scales flying heavenwards
Her eyes closed, feeling the warmth of sun as she flies
Each scale reflects with a vivid cry
Her horned snout opens wide
Teeth shines with multifaceted diamond light
Spray of water glides with flying form
She crashes back into the beautiful blue
Haunting the breach between sea and sky
And with a sigh she descends back to
The dark, deep womb
