seductive tropical waters
glorious and turbulent seas
tides in, tides out
my body flows
a siren sings
my heart aches for thee
secrets, dreams, and
shattered, battered souls
like broken coral
and shifting sands
empty shells and
d r i f t w o o d
ancient messages
bound in aubergine seaweed
brittle, root attached
not quite ready
to give up
dreams once written
rusted trawlers buried stories in the sea
sailors tied up in tales
his heart to be caught
without release
a siren sings
I hear her echo
she calls her lover out to sea
are you here, my love
can you hear my plea
you know I will be gentle
bring your heart
home
to me
