In a sea of rolling heather,
'neath an Autumn's quilted heavens -
patchwork white with golden threadings,
'gainst an azure endlessness -
lie thee, breathing essences
caught within the heady breezes.
(How doth it feel to breathe under the sea?)
You are free, so wander; wading
through the waves of longing,
wrapped in lambent winds and sunlight -
oh, the sunlight! when on bare skin
touches, feel then warmth that freezes
time! Enjoy the joy of piercing grace
and pulchritude no heart could e'er contain!
For thus thou art to me.

LOVELY!!!
I have so often wondered how it would feel to "breathe under the sea"... I adore the imagery here.
Thank you~
