"We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch - we are going back from whence we came." - John F. Kennedy

A Sam Scott poem collaboration
with Mystic Rose Rose
9th February 2024
-----

Listen to poem:

Wide awake and dreaming, this old heart never sleeps wandering through a sea of feelings praying in for keeps Cinematic colours of a seascape, hopeful joys keep the currach in motion, as love's oar deploys Dreams awakened we go now, paddling softly to the sea steering gently through the water, it's just you and me Tasting passions soft as silence through the salty air companions, the gently kissing ocean laps, a lullaby lair

Dear Sam, this is a wonderful, dreamy collab between two very talented poets. The flow of the poem is impeccable and it’s seamless. A mesmerising read with the picture to accompany it. ‘ As love’s oar deploys’ - love that. The last couplet is heavenly romantic. Loved it with the beautiful imagery. Very well done to you both my friend x :)

Wow this flows so well, you both did an excellent job, i cant even tell which part is written by rose, or by you, how flawless it is! I love the soft, delicate touch to both of your lines throughout and also the rhymes are beautiful. Is this your first ever collaboration with someone sam? Because you really did deliver a deep soulful write that readers would enjoy!especially loved “ wandering through a sea of feelings praying in for keeps “‘and also “ Cinematic colours of a seascape”! Brilliant

Hi Ink, not quite my first. I have done vocals too, but the first that has been published, It was fun and I would like to do more if given the chance. Thanks for you fabulous comments - Rose really was the star of this and so very generous to work with and such a lovely lyrical tone of expression - my bit was made easy. She is a wonderful mentor. So very nice to hear from you :))

a delightful collaboration! Loved the Kennedy quote at the beginning. You created such a dreamy quality to your poem...cinematic colors, paddling softly to the sea...it's just you and me. I loved the romanticism in the poem as well. Nicely done! Faving!
