This story-poem , is for a dear friend of mine.
Only seen the sea on T V
Read about the ocean in poetry
In story's
Listened in thrilled , by story's told
By friends returning from trips to
Ocean , faraway and not so far away
Like a little girl , she was so full of excitement
As like a child she had no fear of the sea
Her only fear being , that her dreams
Well , were dreams , not this time , her dreams were soon to be true
Hopes all realized and a lot more besides to come her way
Her senses , filled with the aroma , and sounds of the ocean
But , no , she was not in a dream state
She look out to the beach , to the ocean
To see the sea , it was true, white horses
Were riding the waves , she could see them
Cantering , back to the sand , that made up the beach
She could no longer wait , she ran to the beach
Kicking off her shoes , tears ran down her face
Not tears of pain , or sadness , no , oh no!
Such memory's , consigned to the past , at least for now
New memory's being created in the now!
First time in her , life , she felt only joy , oh joy , she was happy , so happy!
She felt safe , had never ever felt so safe!
She let her self drop , fall to the sand of the beach
Rolled over and over , she screamed , and giggled
As like a child , as right then she was , her inner child freed
She got to her feet , she found her self in the sea
Gulls she saw , swopping down to the sea , to float on the sea
As she ran towards the sea , a strange phenomena was before her
The colours , seemed to change before her eyes
From turquoise blue , to emerald green , quite extraordinary sight to see
Such a sea
She felt a strange , but a good kind of strangeness , she'd never ever felt that
Ever before in her life , and like the strangeness , she felt so good , a happiness
That she found she loved that feeling , just loved it , loved it!!
As she ran , full of glee , her light summer gossamer clothing falling , from her
Revealing her white two piece swimming costume , her first , she'd not before
Needed one , now she did
She ran and ran in to the sea , it was cool , yet strangely warm and welcoming
She felt as like the sea , were cuddling her, stroking her skin , she felt good
Oh so good , so very good
Then she felt something gently brushing her thighs , heard sounds , squeaking , Clicking sounds , she felt no fear , as she look around her she saw dolphins , she recognized she'd seen them on T V , so know they meant her no harm
They were a pod , a family pod of dolphins
Felt her self , lifted , then realized , she was riding a dolphin!
David Attenborough , he'd be so impressed , a tingly bit jealous
She felt no need to hold on , the dolphin know just what to do
The dolphin took her for a spin , nothing could she compare the ride with
Escalated at amazing speeds , twists and turns , up up to the sky above
Then dived , dived back in to the sea , she griped her thighs tightly , arms held up High
Yelps and screams , of pure delight , joy , pleasure , unbounded , free
The mother dolphin , gently let her drop of her back , the dolphin mum smiled
The human woman said '' thank you '' , the dolphin clicked '' you are welcome , my
dear ''
Full moon, with the sun like a spot light , stars , as like house lights shone in the sky above , a phenomenon
The sea , the stage was set out , let the show commence
She some how understood each click and squeak , she did no why or how she did , And cared Less. She understood , that is what mattered
A mother and father , with two , darling dolphin children
The mother dolphin guided her children to her , the father dolphin gently nudge Her towards his children
She , found herself between them , she put her arms around them
Mother and father dolphin , spoke in clicks , she found she could understand every click , gift of tongs?
The parents swam a little away , and performed just for her , the children believed
They had seen it all before , when mum and dad put on a show , not been trained
Just did what came naturally , stood upon their tails , danced , backwards , as only Dolphins can
Looped the loop , twists and turns , dived in to the sea , then , up , up , out of the sea , up , up in to the sky , more twists and turns , somersaults in midair
One of the dolphin , children excitedly in clicks: '' thats our mum and dad that is ''
'' We've been wondering why , what , who they had been practicing for ''
'' Looks like they know you were coming '' , both the children said in unison , Smiled , as only dolphins can
Mum and dad dolphin , heads , bob up down gently , in the calm sea , waves gently Lap over them both , they clicked to their chilldren
The oldest , made clicks: '' right , kid , we're on! '' after guiding her back to the Beach , insuring she was safe , had a good view , swam towards their mum and dad
The young dolphins , now disengaged from her , swam towards mum and dad
She court some clicks being exchanged , the children clearly existed
The mum and dad , clicked: '' now remember what what we showed , not to Close'' , '' right lets put on the show '' , '' our one human woman audience awaits!
The four dolphins , disappeared from her site , beneath the sea
To reappear , out of the sea , forming an a diamond formation
They swopped , they , dived , they made a circle, spun , splashed back in to the Sea , emerged , then up up up , in to the sky , twists , at amazing speed , took her Breath away
Then , they disappeared once more , and age it felt to her , she was sad
Thinking they gone , leaving her a lone , once more
Then something amazing happonde , out of the sea , emerged not just the family Of dolphins , a huge pod , appeared before her eyes , the sky , the sea was full of Dolphins
The performance had began at early dawn , now it were dusk , the Gods and Goddesses , shone the moon and sun on the performers as like spotlights
The show was over , she stood applauded , the dolphins , who took their bows
All excitedly clicked towards her , she called out '' encore encore '' , and they duly
Obliged , her , there audience of one , the show had been just for her!
Affter the final encore , she feel a sleep , her dreams , full of dolphins , who Serenaded her in lullabies clicks , whales , had joined the choir , singing lullabies of The sea
She awoke , happily , an experience , she had never known , she got dressed. The family Of dolphins , bobbed up and down , in their realm , the sea
She waved , a farewell , '' I'll be back , thank you for you have don for me ''
I'll be back to see your grandchildren '' , '' take care my dear friends ''
As she turned , to make her way home , she felt tears flowing down her face
This time , the tears , were , of joy , not of sadness , not of pain , just joy
The sea , the dolphins , had given her back the joys of life
