Bed of jewels

Coral reefs and clown fish
A whole array of life forms
Adorn the sea floor
In a multitude of colours

Through my goggles
I scan the seabed
Awestruck
By their beauty divine

The turquoise waters
Embrace us as we snorkel
In the waters
Of the Tioman island

Like a mermaid decked
In myriad jewels
The patterns of wriggling life
Are etched in my mind

As I move
New images unfold
Like hidden masterpieces
On a giant canvas!
