The Pier By the Sea

The sound of the sea so close to my door a blue feeling in my fingers my spirit is not so blue... Our walks on the pier where I am born eternal the entire color aurora awakens the sea and you... Love swim so close to me madness love me on this shipwreck the oars and port is breaking If only I had a boat... Floating seagulls for an instant would stop and shout my voice in such a jovial churn a simple duel mystery... Duel of music in the air the open magnolia of your kisses dresses the waves of passion with the passionate view of distant sailboats... The entire aurora awakens the sea in you stretched in a dream the gulls carry to my hands Leaving me two water skies...

It has been so long ago since I've been by the sea. I live in the mountains. Your poem is quite beautiful. Love and prayers to you, Gina

this is so mystical and beautiful. I feel he was dying and yet, not sure at the end there. But I love that ending. was it all a dream? Two water skies. such a unique image!
