A creature in the sapphire deeps awake
Floating silken like in a colourful cape
She spreads her cape of iridescent grace
Like a shifting phantom in pathless space.
​No caverned stone or rocky den she craves
A perpetual wanderer of the salt water waves
Her pulsing webs divide the ancient tide
Where violet shifts and primal terrors hide.​
Then by her side, a speck upon the tide
The miniature male that seeks no pride
He yields his life giving away special arm
To make new babies, to let the future bloom. ​
Her movements reveal the sheer elegance
Less like swimming more like a classical dance
The sea’s true princess, robed in living lace
She rules the quiet & vast, untamed embrace.
