Toss paper boats, crisp and white
Where the ocean falls into the sky
Where fishes flash among the stars
And where the keening whale-songs are
Bridges between a-float and flight

I love the imagery of your poem. I kind of want to take a trip to the ocean and throw a few paper boats in to see what happens.
Haha thank you, that’s a fun thought 🙂
