Fireflies of the sea
a free verse poem on the mystical planktons

there, i see you, perched atop the mountain of waves, caressing each watery molecule, you are ready to lash onto me, ohh, the fireflies of the sea, my eyes circumnavigate the horizon, bluish-green dots of light, mystical, magical, surreal, amazingly producing its own light, tis’ like watching the twinkling stars, the nebula, the infinite space, altogether, staring at your footstep, the sky and the ocean converging, at a point, boundaries diminishing, slowly, slowly, slowly, and my eyes, glow too, in that bluish-green tinge, the soul, seeping in, the bioluminescence!
Thanks a lot, Dr Mehmet Yildiz, and all the editors at Illumination for sheltering so many of my stuff, here!
