See clearly when calm*

See clearly when calm*

Clouds do not exist below a pond

They might reflect on the surface when it is calm

But a depth below that it does show in view

Transparency is clear, when one is looking though

But to a fish in such pond it seems to be fine

It sees perfectly in its environment all of the time

My Love is in the deepest denizens*

My love is in the deepest denizens*

I await along the coastline for it is the ocean

Waves come crashing on the shore with its motion

I know she will come to me as this is my wish

She lives deep below the sea, deep with the fish

For when she sees me and she asks for a fair trade

My heart will open hers, she is no longer a mermaid

Pondering illumination*

Pondering illumination*


I come to the edge of the deck
I have walked a bit on my trek
I gaze into the waters and see
Fiery illumination in front of me
These are orange and white koi fish
The blend of fire under water as you wish

Fish was making waves*

Fish was making waves*


I sit at the banks on this cloudy afternoon
Look out at the water, feel the clearing soon
I see the chop in the lake as this moves away
Each one on top of the other but does not really stay
Ah a pop up, it is a big old bass fish
It wanted to see the other reality, this was its wish

Colourful palette underwater*

Colourful palette underwater*

A walk through the park on this fine day
The trees and pond captivated as they stay
Go to the gazebo, the water in view
It is the koi fish coming by, it is I they knew
Looking for attention  from me to greet
They think I have dinner and something great to eat

Caught in time*

Caught in time*

Little boy comes with dad to fish

It is his happiness that he does wish

They both have set up on the docks

And casting their lines beyond the rocks

Pulling in the bait and doing it again

Nothing to bite this afternoon maybe someday then

Play coy in a pond*

Play coy in a pond*

Fish in the pond so colourful to see

Feed them real well as they are so happy

They go in their waving patterns of art

In their own school as they are so smart

Beautifully rainbowed without brush

They move about so freely, so what's the rush

Fish with a spark*

Fish with a spark*

The rapids run quick and water gushes through

The fish that run upstream have a dying wish to do

It is on the path that they will all burn out

Slows up, going against the current without a doubt

Now this in mind I see a lighted bump fighting to

An electrifying lit fish that looks like it made it through

Dom*Colucci 2010

This is a true imagination as I looked at the rapids at a river tributary and seen a bump that looked like a fish electrified running upstream....

Park it right here*

Park it right here*

Vibrant afternoon and the sun is out in the park
Awaited for the moment when clouds subside from the dark
I take up residency front row seating at the pond
I see a natural seat as I will get calm on a rock
In the distance I see many ripples of fish that is stocked
But I look at how God is sending a positive vibe to me
They are done in many breezy ripples as I can see

Paint a picture of Ocean Blue*

Paint a picture of Ocean Blue*

Ocean breeze and the clouds always calm
White sands beach with tropical tall palms
Beautiful warm water the colour deep blue
Playful fish and rainbows coral vibrant true
The picture is of one as artist eye sees
Without brush and canvas perception lets it be

Smart things come from schools*

Smart things come from schools*

Underwater and feeling blue
The fish has this personality so true
It sits in its patience and sees forever
Moves when it wants, does not know never
So its highway is paved so empty and clear
We should learn from a fish while we are still here
