nurses of wounded seas
Lisa Panepinto
 
 
dolphins swim with one eye open and alert 
one eye closed and dreaming a new start
 
passing high frequency clicks 
through coral reefs with meditative breath
 
naming each other with syllabic tones
dolphins rest in sand shelter coves
 
cleansing polluted shores with songs 
removing fishing lines from netted whales
 
dolphins carry underwater light and therapeutic salts 
to ease the stress of frightened seals
 
journeying below the clank of oil rigs  
war submarines and wire debris
