Sigrid Ermine Poet Rhyme

Mammoth Drift

Taken sideways, swept as a web strung spider
Sand sugar legged staggered specimen lured by weightless
            Drifters soon to be lifted by unruly tide's violent 
Fears ditched for the squall enthrall of ocean fizzed caress

           Bolstered by booming blue brew, cork floated
Swell surmounts without pattern or rationale, contankerous
          Bobbed from below, five foot heads promoted
Bounced jack in boxes sprung from rolling realm rapturous  

             By tide's untimed tumult, sea steamed unite
 Sapphire stew participants simmer, softening vegetables 
           Drawn to next wily wave, crest conquer delight 
 Drag of salt soaked slow motion moon cascade incredible

           Roaring turquoise rise, crumb humans crafted
Into toys at mercy of lapis lazuli, control's essential revoke
          Track formation, tremor with desirous laughter
Brought to cool commotion by compulsion utterly unspoke

David Kavanagh September 27, 2020 at 12:53 PM Oh such pure unadulterated poetry in motion, the sea and environs brought to life in dreamlike animation, love this, not very often do I enter the sea in Ireland too cold for me to enjoy, but Your poem evokes memories of swimming in sideway drifts in Wexford, as a child having to keep one eye on my parents on the beach to avoid getting lost downstream, thank you for reminding me Sigrid, cheers David.
