Deepest fathoms of Caribbean sapphire
Reveal a diver's paradise off the Spanish main
Littered by jolly buccaneer shipwreck
That dusted the murky bottom to shine.
With mass of color that burned the eye
To tye-dye gunwales covered by sea garden,
Where glass fish meandered through cabins
That light had forsaken to the abyss.
The divers swam through that lost city
Mesmerized by the broken landscape
Supporting new life, miniature biomes
Consecrated from wood and bone,
A buried treasure of human remains
For the sea to claim as its own.
She was reborn there in the calm
Undulating currents of the manta rays
Summoning the graveyard into a nursery,
Hoping that someday, once her time is done,
That she could complete the circle of life
By ending it there, by becoming a reef.
