How To Mellow

Catch tugs towards their berth Little yacht traipses triangular trail Cottage clasping slope admires bay Fisherman’s wife swells, eon enamour For his boomerang voyage, she brings Tomato rocket fishpaste pita bread Thermos of jasmine tea, to picnic Basket bemuses bee buzz blooms Manna powder release from each Pink proclamation jesters jostle Solargold galaxies galavant, plentiful Dianthus dilate, lemon balm overlap Pale gravel path merges blonde sand Their footsteps converge, bone beige Neck nuzzle murmurs leather bound Sunstrike bounces blind broadwater Diminished senses replenish focus Duty for union, find food free of market Encapsulated in cove of commitment Genmaicha gratitude values volume

Your poetry reminds me of Kim Van Breda's (a compliment), though, like hers, perhaps the ambiguity like a jazz improvisation strays a little too far from the melody, at least for me----I don't want to work that hard - yet, great art! You play with alliteration and assonance seductively ... but please, if you wish, come more into the light...
