Caught in a Rip
by Ch'erie
Caught in a rip
with an incoming tide
tossed about like a lost buoy
upon a sea of fierce indiscretion
Foaming and frothing
waves lapping all around
finding their way into lungs
that were happy to be drowned
Fight or flight responses
lulled by an influx of warm salty water
on it's way to the stable shoreline
but, all in good time!
Rolling gently amid the caressing waves
head o'er heels, without direction
only sense of up is the flow of bubbles
When the submerged is ready to surface!

Life can truly do that to us, far too often.
