Ocean's Love Affairs
Glistening peaks of waves in the moonlight,
soft and tender lapping at water 's edge
as the beach welcomed the incoming.
Anticipating the velocity of tidal thrusts,
sands quivering shifting limbs nervously
as wave after wave bombarded the shoreline.
Lost in motion all indifferent to the cry of pebbles
as waves incessantly lashed rugged rocks
while sea sprays pampered their anguish
from the chiseled process of sculptured stones.
Propulsion of heavy ocean waters entering,
filling every cavern with rocket motions as air
forced out in tensed release culminating
in the screams of blowholes.
In the aftermath, leaving a heady sparkling
trivia of tiny bubbles bursting with joy.
Glistening tears on her cheeks, she waited
Winds whipping her face while dread aged
her breathing as each desire vacillated.
Waiting, yearning for his kiss, that soft touch
of cool sea-mist brushing her lips,
the musky smell of him massaging
her every sense with heady erotic aromas.
As dawn broke, dreams of unrequited love
also shattered against razor-sharp reefs
leaving in splinters, micro-chips from his
wooden heart with coded messages for each
beach damsel awaiting his next surfing of local nets.
Whispers of breakers as tide neared rising,
dwindling hopes of ever birthing her silent
longings, moulding his pleasures with her being.
Waves took not only her hopes but also his shifty
footprints, leaving only froth on fickle sands.
