Voyage
©June4th, 2016
By Vijaya Sundaram
The boat bobs slowly
With no oars and no pilot
Behind lies the shore.
The boat floats darkly
Sun-rays spread across water
Beyond lies a dream.
Water-creatures leap
Bright shoals of fish alongside
Your gaze plummets down.
Down the mazèd deeps,
Into the heart of the Earth
And you hear “Farewell!”
