Notes About The Poem

Romantic Waters

Romantic Waters

Romance dwells in moving waters
Cerulean lake lapping the shore...
Moonlight cast across the waves
As the sea sings of passion's amour.

Kayaking on the Russian river
In twilight's softest silhouette...
Feeling the droplets from Niagara
Lovers kiss near romantic falls.

Skinny dipping in an aqua lagoon
To cool before a night of passion.
Lazing next in hot spring waters
Encompassed in aurora's lights.

Lotus blossoms bask in waters
Of loving mem'ries so sublime.
Romance dwells in moving waters
In love straight from Nature's heart.

A stunning write Connie. I shudder to think of a world without water, it is as essential to my spiritual well-being as it is a necessity to life. Your words feel like I am meditating before a glorious painting. The imagery and feel is deeply sublime. A lovely poem with beautiful romance to be re-read whenever in need of a serene nature filled moment of bliss. Magnificent writing, a fave

How romantic this poem is, Mrs Connie. I pray you are on the mend. How wonderful it will be when you are able to get on with life, problem free. By the way, It's been a while since I've been skinny dipping but I haven't forgotten the fun and excitement:)

Just came to say hi, Connie. Looks like Joe will be late tonight, so I will be able to walk Snickers. I can send his picture to you in email. I do not know why Soup won't let my picture stay in place when I post it from my email.
