And so the friendly man made way to distant shores,
Boldly opening and entering his self-made mental doors.
For there he saw a friendly sight at play in rolling surf -
A family of dolphins living it up for all it was worth.
There he sat and watched and there he sat and waited
Until the friendly dolphins' need for fun was satiated.
And humbly he listened as they gathered on the beach,
Close enough to feel but not close enough to reach.
They told him of their place and the wonders of their world -
Of a place where magic was - where time and water curled.
He marvelled at their stories and the way they painted thoughts
For though they didn't speak at all, their visions were clearly wrought.
They joked a lot and made much light of the things we hold so dear,
Their message was a refreshing one, so open and so clear.
We get what we create to be - we gather as we reap.
We can make the heavy light or we can make the level steep.
And as if to prove that very point, they pretended to be sharks
Whose only sound that could be made was as a seal would bark.
And then they gathered in the waves making a chorus line
While tipping hats and waving fins they sang Good Morning Sunshine.
But what was most amazing and what struck a chord in me
Was the way they freely utilised their abundant energy.
As casual as you please and so that laughter made him cry,
They created clouds and shaped them into a dolphin sky.

And swam off, diving into waves as ever playfully.
When the man stood up to watch them go to return from whence they came,
The morning sun across the sea became his trusty flame.
Knowing it was always there, it surprised him none
For he knew that little flame of his was how all this was done.
It was his own creation - an extension of his being -
And wherever his imagination went it was his way of seeing.
The power of your wish is such that no one could begin
To explain just what dimension it is that you're operating in.
Where there?s fire there is life and where there?s hope there is a flame
Where the dolphins make it easy, know that you can do the same.
Now if you doubt all I have said then let me take your hand
And share with you my special place that I call AiryLand.
