The Dolphins

A poem about swimming with our most playful and curious marine friends

The Dolphins - A Poem by Sue Cartwright, Spiral Leaf


Lulled into the lull of deepness, blissful sleep;

At one with the Universe, where mind and soul meet;

Drifting, an oceanic paradise of inner peace;

Swimming with the Dolphins, in perfect ease.


Sensing intelligence ... will you stay a while?;

Mesmerising symphony of clicks, whistles, smiles;

Powerful momentum, in distances of miles;

Closest marine friends, self-aware, divine.


Fit and fibrous, streamlined blubber, lean;

Long, ballistic jumps, arching backs, top speed;

Delphinidae mammals, aquatic masters of the Sea;

Feel the joy, my imagination runs away with me.


Playfulness in friendship, a love for living life;

Bringing out my inner child, innocent and wild;

Feeling curious, creative, sociable and kind;

In the spirit of the Dolphins, masterful and wise.
