Endless deserted beach as far as the eye can stretch.
Standing on the shore She called to me,
in a language I thought I had forgotten.
I listened with apprehension.
Shedding mans’ shame I leapt into Her abyss .
She sucked me into Her warm inviting waters.
Twisting and turning me through the currents.
A thousand fingers caressing my skin,
as She delightfully tosses me in Her waves.
Oh She plays rough!
Pushing and pulling me down beneath Her breaks.
Only glimpses of bright sunshine and azure sky.
With child-like giddiness I swim naked in the sea,
playfully wrestling the mighty Atlantic.
