Imagine for a moment
A perfect sunny-blue sky day.
The atmosphere welcomes you
With a gentle warmth and beauty.
Fly for a moment
On the wings of an eagle,
Soar through the sky with grace
And watch the stillness of the water.
Should you by chance
Let go of the eagle’s wings
And plunge into the waters below
Suddenly breaking through the stillness.
Here you find
Your heart racing in panic
As the water below the surface
Rages with angry undercurrents.
You are pulled fiercely
In every direction…so
Uncertain…so…afraid
That you might not come out alive.
