The Flock Of Birds
A shoal of fish is like a flock of birds
They fly through the ocean like aeroplanes
Through shallow and deep water where tides change
Going with the flow and turning at will
Like china silverware in the sea
They’ll glitter as they all dive together
Swimming with the rhythm of the ocean
The windy waves make the sun dance above
The foam created is like the white clouds
The birds of the ocean move peacefully
With long spears of light passing between them
This creates a disco throughout the shoal
A sequined net swimming until sunset
I watch them go as the flow they follow
