The fish swam in swarms,
Hugging like mama’s arms,
Enveloping me,
in a sphere of moving life.

All around me, fish swim.
Delighted, happy, and simply divine.
All hunkering for some of
the guide’s fish food.

The bottle is open,
The fish food is spread
The fish all crowd,
for a bite of food.

They swim past me,
fins swiping,
pushing the water,
touching my skin.

Dazzled, I swim through them
The feeling of lightness,
Fish ripple by my body,
I am surrounded by them.

The fish food is eaten,
The bottle is put up,
but the fish still swim,
Looking for a bite.

Looking for a bite,
to eat.

During our trip to Cancun, Mexico, we went snorkeling. During the snorkeling trip, the guide spread fish food for the fish to eat. They swarmed around me looking for a bite.
