A Tulip Opening Petals

A tulip opening petals 
Your words flow so smoothly
As I look at your fingers 
You do everything to soothe me

In your elliptically wide eyes,
The Mediterranean waves call me
A blue sky touching the water
The waves within are a little unruly

Your lines are so direct
As if I am seated next to you
Wrapping me intensely 
The waters of the blue

Should we drown ourselves in these stanzas
While you read aloud your poetry,
From the symmetry of two figures 
To a purposeful asymmetry
