Love Boat

Indigo ink dreams Dripping from heart Tattoos tongue with kinetic kiss Green electric buzz like sip Of fine blueberry wine so sweet Dreamy turquoise love touch Filling me up with red desire On fire for your romantic antic Sweeping me off my feet Carrying me with ease Of a blue breeze to deserted love island Where tan sands caress like brown hands White waters flow warm and toasty Fast slow then in closing cold Never let go of this love For it floats like a boat

You are probably too young to remember the series. I had a crush on Julie the cruise director when I was a kid. I enjoyed your imagery.

Dear Karen, I am enthralled with the romantic feeling and imagery of your poem. I adore your use of color "indigo ink", assonance "kiss/sip", "ease/breeze', internal rhymes "fine/wine", sands/hands and word combos like "romantic antic". In other words.. I adore all the poetic devices so deftly employed in your splendid verse! Belated congrats for your POTD honors.. a wonderful and worthy choice! Warmest wishes my gifted poetry friend.. ~Susan

Hi Karen, A hearty congratulations on this sensual penning, so well done. I love your sense of color. Blessings.

Karen Jones
Date: 5/1/2024 11:30:00 AM

Hi Nancy! I use color when I can because of my 6th grade teacher who once critiqued my poetry saying it lacked color! lol I was forever charged with getting her approval of my poetry! Thanks and blessings returned.
