Oh watch the mighty sea with tempting sounds.
Your female fragnance tickles manly chords
while windy songs seduce my heart towards
your lovely arms to cover killing grounds.
Yet images burn beyond my minding bounds,
a lasting fire will create screaming ford's
of nature's call to throw away past swords
and useless thoughts will shape by touching rounds.
Now stormy deeds awake my mortal clay
and magic will proclaim an endless stream
for hungry mouths to feed between your moves.
Your moody tides will wash away to play
my last resistance down to make a team
of lover's aim who's living shall improves.

Outstanding
I liked how you linked images of the sea into this poem. The rhyme is strong and doesn't detract from the poem. I liked how you developed the theme and the creative element that is integral to this poem. Congratulations on the trophy.
