As Wide as the Ocean
Decompress,
restore,
recover.
Feet held by cool sand,
legs awash in foamy brine,
soul soothed by
the sight,
sound,
sensations,
of rhythmic waves
as they
swell,
roll,
crest,
break,
uprush,
backwash,
intermingle
over and over
and over again.
Shoulders back,
heart open,
breath comes
with ease.
As wide as the ocean—
fully you,
fully me,
all the way in it
together.
