Cover Artist In-studio Interview: Mikaela Shafer



A poem written to accompany the cover piece These Waters Heal, by Mikaela Shafer

WADE IN THE WATER
Wade in the water with me
Feel the burn of the cold, cold water
Slowly inching in
Feet clenching sand
Wade in the water with me
Gasp for air when the cold sucks it away
Waves splashing skin
Salt in the air
Wade in the water with me
Almost there now; just a little bit further
Get our hair wet
Sink right in
Wade in the water with me
Tears stream down and mix with ocean
Wash it all away
Do it all again
