Above mountainous horizon
hot air balloons and seagulls
glide along an aquamarine sky
in cool, glistening blue pool
a bird perched on a stop sign
bobbing like a buoy,
watches a giant light bulb float by
filled with cobalt water
gathering energy
It's a miniature world, within a world
self contained, thriving
Monumental statue stands tall
on green grass and flowers
she's encased,
preserved
sharks circle lady liberty
and an eagle soars high
fish swim in shadows below
as flecks of light shine down,
reflective shards peek
showing pictures in glimpses
as sea grass waves hello
to marine creatures circling
in synchronized formation
Hallucination or mirage,
optical illusion or forecast of tomorrow?
