Beneath the seas
of waving kelp and seeping brine
there swims the sprite of ocean sighs
beauty's goddess of lore and legend
holding Elysium's breath in her womb,
giving birth upon the breeze
aided by Neptune's bath of marine magic
to what in mortals gives their hearts
the pulse of passion's pearls.
In cresting call her sulky swirling spell
bespeaks its siren song
that reaches forth in undulating throb
deep into the veins of desire.
They come in boat of sail and steam
in search upon the glassy aqua sheen
for a drink from the divine nectar she pours
over the souls once wading in despair's cesspool,
which never sip from love's pure wine
flowing from her naked charmed essence.
Beings as vessels passing in the night
upon a concrete surface
comes her resonance of amore's taunting tones
sending it vibrations into the quivering subdued moans,
until her life preserver of romance
at last rescues lives from the desert isles of longing
and there arises in the vision of her elegance spirit
sailing in search of harbors
with arms to heal their damage cargo.



and my Love
