\"\"<\/p>\n

Drowning out the world
\nthey descend
\nExplorers of the Deep
\nwith goggles over eyes
\nand pursed lips
\nthat smile, now and then,
\nand whisper bubbles<\/p>\n

They know the treasures
\nthey will find
\nbut imagine them
\nunknown
\nmarvelling at the
\nmyriad possibilities
\nof what they could be<\/p>\n

Great discovers of trinkets
\nlost and found
\nwith pruned fingers
\nand hair, slick with bubble bath
\nThey babble and beam
\nin the aftermath
\nand will dream well, tonight<\/p>\n
