Love Poem: Lovely Sands

Lovely Sands

Spring doth bring
Pairing of the loons
Apples blooming on the branch
Lemons scent, as birds so sing
Woods so wet, never ceasing waves
The tides push madly, crashing
Upon the springtime waves
Chanting and ebbing out to sea
Life lifting music, concertos
Sound woodwinds so light
I look for my other, my connected to be
Welcoming nearness as spring did the trees
Sights and sounds of bodies of water and forest alike.
I swim in Indigo Ocean
Caressed by nakedness in fields of kelp.
I lie and float, breast above, waiting
On a kind of true love.
Aching motionless just to be discovered
My feminine Phoenician name.
Divine you are.
I list your flesh just for myself.
Face, hands, limbs, head to toe
Love-flesh that swells my
Being and makes my heart grow.
Mysticism in air, as un-nameable
Madness amore’.
Things I long to whisper
But too shy in this moon light
The sea lit up by moon and stars.
I am possessed by all of you 
And celestial touch from above.
Never escape me, oh never flee
Your abandonment would leave
A shell of what used to be me.
Your touch still seared deep within my skin.
Nevermore, my possessor, utterly stop your
Whispers to me.
I tremble with passions.
My time alone, not encroached upon by you,
But loving you give unselfishly give yourself to me.
To separate two lovers skin,
Once they have bonded,
Outer and in.
If lost, I’d dream of your lustful touch,
Of trembling without my passion,
The soul I found in you.
Could this be more than life,
An oath, a promise, a romantic friendship
Those two beauties had never shared.
Stake all on that blissful moment and enjoy
It within me.
