The Life Of The Coral

The white

plane floated

over the ocean.

Propeller

dancing in

the wind. 

Peering down

at 

the white twisted 

coral. 

Looking like

a white

skeleton

of what it

used to be.

The fine

bone china

tea cup

balances

on the

shoreline

as the tea

in the cup 

mixes

with 

the salt

water. 

As the 

white coral 

breaths

in,

its reminded 

of its resilience. 

Releasing

tiny baby coral 

to swim in

the ocean currents

and 

understanding

its time

to change its

color. 

This is the 

life of 

the coral.
