from across those luring lakes,
a blanket of wild-seeded coreopsis sways, touching your gentle sigh,
your presence awakens each blossom, touched by natures' mortal grace ~
such angelic beauty you possess,
raptures of sensory engulfing each synapsis of mine,
encased within your kindled flame, i swim with passion, stroked from embers lust ~
gather our hearts together,
watch, as they shoot over ripples from currents tide, soulmates skipping beats ~
wispy whirlwinds swirl, leaves unturned, now scattered on new horizons ~
mossy rocks filtering freshness up stream,
silver fish echo off suns rays, foamy froth covering us in joyous tears of mist,
babbling brook cascades down, into the abyss, where our journey resides ~
swim with me my finned lover,
destiny calls out, the oceans request your powers,
the whales are singing our tune, poseidon, awaits his daughters ceremony,
.....as i,
.....await you ~


The format of this was a bit distracting at first, but the words hold so, so much imagery that it quickly drew me in. From metaphor to depth of feeling, this is just excellent. Thanks so much for your entry and good luck!
