Beach nymphs

.
   From toes unto nose's lip
               alopesia
                 rrrrrr
             there'z not 
                  one
           from the other
                  save
              their romp

             The breeze 
   It's free gift from the sea
     their diaphanous wrap 
             mine -holic

     Down mine sails went
          az mine anchor
               SPLASH
         into the wet salt
                  az i
          Mine eccentric

                Stroke
                stroke
                stroke
            off my went
           afield the sea
           hand in hand
            unto theirn 
              bucholic


* bucholic; my 'Portmanteau' for, bucolic
   and -holic < a suffix forming noun
   indicating a person having an abnormal 
   desire for or dependence on, e.g. workaholic ;)
* pronounced: boo'k hol'ik

Oh James. I wish I understood your language! Is this also the way you converse. Or is it just your writing style,? I do get the gist of most of your poems.
