Oh how I enjoyed it when the sea slapped those old geysers, I was entranced to watch your skin turn into beautiful iridescent scales and amazed to swim with a pod of protective dolphins.<br />Beautiful Fifi, well worth the wait to return and enjoy it properly!Red Hen (dette)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09620943527844246297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-74832232127102263592010-09-01T21:10:02.126+10:002010-09-01T21:10:02.126+10:00I love to read of your swimming, timid as I am now...I love to read of your swimming, timid as I am now, of the ocean.

I visit on the tide via Kerryn Goldsworthy's blog. <br /><br />Your story heartens me for only recently I had heard a reliable academic tell us that the sea is dying. <br /><br />Soon it will be taken over by jelly fish, thousands upon thousands upon thousands of tonnes of of jelly fish. <br /><br />The sea is dying, she said, and unless we do something about it the sea will be no more. <br /><br />Ever the optimist, I trust this will not happen. <br /><br />We will slow our fishing down. We will slow down our exploitation of the seas and share the space. <br /><br />Your beautiful writing about the sea here and your place in it gives me heart. <br /><br />Thank you.Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04015624747225433940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-24914214639619828962010-08-29T02:26:02.425+10:002010-08-29T02:26:02.425+10:00It has been a long time since I've had the ple...It has been a long time since I've had the pleasure of reading The Fish's posting. What energy and life there are in your words! Well worth waiting for. Laughed about The Geezers getting smacked by The Sea. In awe of your time with wild dolphins. I know you must be right about their protecting you from the shark. Creatures know their friends. <br /><br />Hope you are keeping those paint brushes busy.Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-43107341834316097042010-08-28T23:58:35.259+10:002010-08-28T23:58:35.259+10:00Your writing takes my breath away!
