a rippled lagoon reflects pine and
passing cloud with snow-capped
mountains leaning into past
and present blessings from
~ a crystal clear sea ~
that follows the moon to
the other world, so far
yet near when we close our eyes
and do our wildest dreaming
© Xenia Tran

Wishing you all a happy Monday and a peaceful week ahead,
with love from Eivor, Pearl and Xenia xxx

I love the way the otherworld comes close to you in dreams. I have never been to Scotland but I imagine the otherworld still hovers close in the wild places there.

Lovely poem and photos. It certainly does look like crystal clear water and very ripple-y. 🙂

A puente between worlds, Xenia, not just land to sea, land to mountain, but also canine to human, and illustrated with stunning photos! I love how you captured the reflections in the first stanza, and the dreaminess of the second.

I do like the structure of this – the above and below the crystal clear sea. The seen and the unseen.
