Standing On A Smiling Sea Poem by Stephen Bennett The Playjurist

this being only one dreamers'
being
somehow everywhere thing

gathered in so many
beats
of hearts so in

the many peopled presence
all
the joy shining out in

every direction the simply
here
of our all unquiet attention

on the wave tips
where
each pair of lifting

end corners draw out
lips
beginning and ending

smiling smiling smiling
look
at all of them

below sparkling eyes
ringing
to each side ears

many and myself
stand
upon a smiling sea lifted

up to the surprising drop
away
from in among the all of us

no idea what you have
read
it again and again this being
