David Mohn Poet Acrostic

Inhaling the Sea

Inured of earthen reveries,
Now thoughts unfold of turquoise seas.
Heaving swells kiss morning mist 
As dawn’s enlightened warmth assist,
Lifting gray from chartreuse hues,
Imbuing skies with silken blues. 
Neon glints enchant the eye,
Gleaning light from algae’s ply. 

Textured palettes shine below; 
Hallowed reefs of life encased,
Ever housed in sea’s chateau.

Sunset couched in ocean sway,
Ease from mauve to dusk’s embrace;
All my earthbound cares, away.
