Abalone Pea pods and Ladysthumb sweet dreams {for my Sweetest Mina Pea}

Missing image







Sea glass and seashells,
never far from thought or mind,
Dazey hazy daydreamed thoughts,
pearled pea pod entwine,

Have you ever seen a seashell,
that grows on top of sand,
Laid in beds of sea glass jade,
Floating on the grey hued land,

Iridescent opaques of emerald,
To my eyes gently transfix,
purple hues of passion’s flowers,
swirled in a lustered mix,

Comforted in shades of seashells,
snuggled up and bundled tight,
nurtured in our abalone pea pod,
where sweet dreams roam at night,

Strings to lace us in our journeys,
so one pea may not float away,
draped above our Sweet Pea hearts,
not stretched taught in long dismay,

and all there are; are words a few,
to make the sea shells talk,
I send you forever warm sweet dreams
that Ladythumbs….
twinkle in my eyes at their very thought.

    Awesome valentine, Joey. Very nice. Looks like it had the desired effect, too. I can feel the love jumping off this page. Great metaphor and great photo, too.

    Ok Joe LOL I think 'taught' up there should be 'taut'~~ you know I get stinky about that stuff {I think you put that there to see if I would notice didn't you?? }


    Anyways, had to tease you about that I guess but what a beautiful poem this is for our sweet Mina Maiden. I truly believe you found a kindred spirit in her Joe~~ the words you write for each other are so sugar sweet filled with sea dreams and sand castles~~ I think she is that rare kind of dreamer that you are


    The picture up there might have been made for this poem indeedly~~ beautifully breathtaking that was


    I truly hope you both keep up these poems you write to each other~~ they are precious and endearing and wonderful to read the unique language you both seem to share with only each other


    Wonderful writing Joe~~ as always


    ~~Dawn
