Rainbow’s Child

I fell from the plane into the sea
Through the wind my face blew
Swelled and pushed in a happy smile

As I thumped the water seeped
My stomach gave in with a rocky thump

I peddled, I swam
The water was deep
The currents pushed as I went

The whirlpools and black holes were in hallucinations
I kept my breath with a smear and heart

The paddling took my side as I came across a wooden shed
The shed was narrow, dark as is
I felt my hand push through the unknown to find some food

I found a glass, a bowl, and a plate
Wishing to eat I went further some more on the shed as boat in gear

Floating as I was, the legs were at rest
I saw an island, a mirage or sand

As I reached Gilligan's island, I kept my word, the smile and smear
I shook the sand as I strolled, the illusion was great
I wanted to sleep some more

As I woke up the gift was in sight
I had to paddle some more with my hands and legs
