Wrecked

I love to wreck dive, the insperation for this work is the wreck of the Um El Faroud.

Wrecked belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Underwater & Sealife (Limit 2 Per Day) and WATER SPORTS

At first nothing, just blue,
And then just a shadow,
Finally some detail,
But only a little,

But then, there she sits,
Alone and majestic,
Alone on the seabed,
But not for long

Soon we are there,
Dwarfed by her size,
Her Majesty,
Her loneliness,

Once queen of the sea,
But now owned by the sea,
Once travelled the world,
Now the world comes to see,

Now we are leaving,
No time left to spare
Now she’s alone
Only blue and no air.

    “Her Majesty,
    Her loneliness.

    Once queen of the sea,
    But now owned by the sea,
    Once travelled the world,
    Now the world comes to see,”

    Fantastic lines.
