Wondrous





I dove into the ocean
to catch a glimpse
of a sea turtle.
I saw him for a moment,
majestic,
grand,
and my heart fluttered.
I saw pods of dolphins
in the wild, 
leaping,
frolicking like children in 
the playground
and my heart sang.
I saw wondrous things
without a compass to lead the way
nor a plan.
My guide was my curiosity
and the willingness to fail.

  2. smiles...we can see some pretty amazing things when we let that curiousity be our guide...i have seen the loggerheads at a farm where they were being cared for and raised, but never swam with them in nature...that would be so cool....

  3. That last line is so important in life. I think being in the ocean is sort of a primal need fulfilled. So many things to discover.

  7. A wonderful word picture, Ayala! And, I do think we have to have a willingness to fail before we can forge ahead.
