Excellence Award in the 'Legendary 2012' competition

Gliding through deep blue waters,
As I go further down.
Bubbles rise up,
No-where to be found.

Watching coral sway gently,
With the slow, soft streams.
Fish ducking in and out,
Faster than the light beams.

I want to be down here forever,
As it's the prettiset thing I've seen.
I start to make my way up,
As if it was a dream.

I start to go faster,
Kicking my long legs.
To take that one
Little ...big...
Breath.
