exhaling a last breath, a last resistance to elemental translation
eyes closed falling into this deep mystery, i am held effortlessly.
gentle currents entwine their stories, threads of life and warmth
this frozen stasis, those impossible weights are lighter here.
and already the alchemy begins, invisible life finds genesis
streaming surfaces, intricate erosion, new solutions, unfurling change.
a Magpie Tales ekphrastic poem

You caught the gentle vibe of the underwater sculpture nicely.
The last stanza is great, especially the line, 'and already the alchemy begins, invisible life finds genesis'
nice...for me you really pick up the pace in the second stanza...and flourish in the close...alchemy...nice...
Wonderfully chosen words..the alchemy of breath and life..succinctly and insightfully captured..like a bubble on the surface of the sea..Jae
Thanks Isabel, best wishes also to you =)
