Whale Song

Watching you today
I couldn’t hear your song
over thundering ocean waves,
but I felt it. In my bones,
I felt it.

Different species:
you inhabit oceans,
I dry land,
yet somehow, we managed to be
the same.

Your freedom expressed through song,
mine through my words, and
together we formed
a perfect harmony,
an invisible bridge.

Yes, from rocky jetty where I stood
to deeper waters where you breached:
for one magical, sparkling moment,
I saw you and you saw me and we
were one.
