Jeanne Mcgee Poet Free verse

In My Eyes

I’m surrounded by your airy essence
    You taste my skin
          I feel your salted tongue

Your mist fogs my eyes with bubbles
     Hissing as they disappear into air
          Only to return when you touch my face

I hear you speak to the cloudy sky
      As you tumble towards my toes
          Only to run back to the sea and laugh

John Watt June 22, 2020 at 5:44 PM My spidey sense tells me that maybe you just got hit with a wave? Well, even if that's not it, I just love all the sensations you describe of being at the sea. Nice one, Jeanne! Hugs ~ John Jeanne Mcgee June 23, 2020 at 8:29 AM Yes, the wave shot through my legs and hit my friend directly in the face...
