Thirty strong, a surging pod
coruscating ocean prance
Steely grey bobbing lustre
from northern rock shelf, ocean depths
to southern fish feed playground
Travellers two, cigar cocooned
howling shriek of gleaming metal
slicing skies, vapour trails
Antipodean peace, a lullaby
a sweet caress awaits
Moist gills twitch
minds release and sigh
Sleek surf power
glide and strive
a goal ahead, warm salt soak
Loll in shallows, plump and flush
tension skin shrugged off and shed
Power charged,
swim north against the tide
Begin a phase anew...
(David)
