Analysis of Heaven in the Sea



Below the watery line separating sky from sand, a beauty glides with the current far from land.
Like an angel watching her friends,
the sea life is a life to tend.  
There to be a part, apart she can.  
All the fish look to her with love,
giving love in return without demand.
Ever dancing with the wonderful fish, a joy in itself,
forever she’s there to spread love across the whole sea shelf.
