When We Swam with Dolphins and Whales by myself,
Summer Bryant This book is dedicated to each lovely,
Beautiful soul,
Adult and child alike,
Who dares to remember the love and magic of life.
Long ago,
In the heart of the Pacific Ocean,
There was a place filled with magic,
Wonder,
And light.
In this harmonious land,
The seas sang songs,
And the lush green trees whispered stories about the stars.
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath.
Smell the salty sea.
Feel the ocean breeze against your skin.
Hear the ocean waves crash against the shore.
And let yourself remember.
Do you remember when we swam with dolphins and whales?
They taught us how to glide through the blue sea so we could play all day long.
Do you remember when we danced with seahorses deep in the underwater kingdom?
The merpeople liked to braid shells into our hair,
Laughing as we put crystals into theirs.
Do you remember when we raced through the waves on the unicorns?
They filled our hearts with loving light,
And we couldn't help but smile.
Do you remember when the trees bloomed with the most delicious,
Sweet,
Purple,
Tropical fruit?
The leaves shimmered with joy as we sat in their shade,
And they begged us to hug them too.
Do you remember when we lived in the crystal homes along the bay?
Everyone was happy,
So gentle,
So kind to each beautiful friend.
Do you remember sneaking off to the jungle temples?
They became our stage where we sang,
Danced,
And played with the big cats.
Do you remember diving for pearls and kelp in the coral grotto?
We gave Gaia,
Our earth,
Gratitude as she fed us all.
Do you remember when we visited the waterfall fairies by the moonlight?
They giggled with glee as we tossed flower petals into the glowing water.
Do you remember lying under the stars at night?
The star people from the planets above were overjoyed to visit with us.
Do you remember when the whales sang lullabies to us as the night called for dreams?
Even the crickets joined in,
Gently chirping the night away.
Maybe we called this place Lameria.
Maybe we called this place Mew.
Maybe,
Just maybe,
You remember it too.
And even if you don't remember it yet,
Somewhere deep inside your heart,
The magic is still there.
A place where the earth sang and the heart loved.
