Neptune’s Kingdom
A silken moon waits above the sea,
Bleeding bright pearl stars.
She waits for the world to wake
And mourn her silver grace.
Below, the sea holds up the sky,
Salt mixing with space,
As the stars fall onto the water,
Life dances in darkness.
A coral reef of ancient beauty,
The sea’s oldest treasure,
This throne of Neptune waits for light,
And to salute the sun.
A shark bares its jagged teeth,
An angel of brutal force.
Schools of fish move as one
Through the liquid sky.
Sapphire waters, golden sands,
An unknown world full of living jewels.
Secrets, mystery, silent power
All dwell beneath the glittering waves.
