Bits of Sea Glass

adorning apricot
  stardust silently
    enveloped
     turbulent waves, 
gingerly dappling 
   each ingrained
      bit of sea glass 
whence the tides
        were stilled,
'til they ebbed
    'tween streams
        of serene
            spring waters,
      rushing sky castles
          outer banks in 
             cascades of
                tranquil
                     awed hushes
                         overflowing
                                midst 
                                   surrendered 
                                                fantasies

How do you do it? Its as if I am standing there in the ebb tide amongst little eddies. The swaying motion is felt rather than read. Then it floats as if i were merely dreaming it. Wonderful vocab you have

The title alone enchanted me, I saw that and knew before even clicking on to this soft and amazing piece of work I would fall in love with what I found inside. And I was not wrong. Your poetry is off the charts, it is mesmerizing and so very unique. Loved this Paloma.
