silence is my siren

as the sea serenades sorrowful symphonies of marine ruins I listen to the crashing crystals within sun-drenched sapphires married to the memories of once upon a castaway prose blissfully blocked replaying an unwritten reality for silence is my siren luring mermaid moon-flowers to an island of spiritual embers emanating emerald anthems~ a storm of slithering sepals.... yet unfair is the tide hollow and cold p u l l i n g at fragile silk of whimsical waves~ a skewed ambience lost in mythical sagas amidst stranded souvenirs sighing and weeping vulnerable verses forever yours, never mine...

IE, amazing how much is lost and gone forever. The sea does seem relentless in its constant ebb and flow. There was a line from "Jaws"...we need a bigger boat. Nothing will last forever as we know. I hope you are enjoying every sweet day you have. Smiles!

Ahh, my sweet ink impress! This poem makes my mermaid heart glow and beam with pure delight!! How absolutely magical is your wordsmithery here whilst layered with so many impactful emotions that can tug at anyone's heartstrings ~ from the imagery to adjectives and metaphors and especially that title "silence is my siren,, wowww!! Everything is just flawless here in every manner!"I listen to the crashing crystals within sun-drenched sapphires married to the memories of once upon a castaway prose" and "silence is my siren luring mermaid moon-flowers to an island of spiritual embers" I love these lines beyond words could describe! And those glimmering alliterations which you've so artistically woven throughout, ahh, just enchant my soul! "amidst stranded souvenirs sighing and weeping vulnerable verses forever yours, never mine..." That ending part is just so evocative!

Dearest Ink. You have penned an outstanding poem here! Like a melody that ripples alone can recall, the way you weave together the sadness of the ocean with the memories of affection that was gone generates an otherworldly atmosphere. Like poetry embraced by the ocean, the prose is fragile yet strong. Great bards like Rumi and Abounawas demonstrate that ideas can and do cross-pollinate, which is something I admire about your last comments. So that you know, I don't remember ever reading your poem. However, I would be very delighted to mimic your amazing style, even though our approaches are different, to foster the fertilization of ideas. Your style is really captivating, and I really envy your extensive vocabulary and eloquence. Congratulations on your contest win. May you be blessed!

Funny how you can live near a lake and not get what the ocean gives. This is what I think of reading this.

Silence is my siren... Is that an original or someone's prompt? In any case it's brilliant, since it conveys so much in so few words. Its message is simple: I'm hurting and need a little help. The nice thing about a siren is it almost always produces an immediate response. You have many friends and supporters. Or, hopefully, the fictional subject of your poem does.

When we love from deep within our heart, we give up a piece of it which can never belong to us again. A well chosen title, Ink.

Dearest Inky.This is absolutely enchanting! The way you weave the ocean’s melancholy with the echoes of lost love feels so ethereal, like a song only the waves remember. That last line—forever yours, never mine—hits like a whisper from the deep, lingering long after the tide pulls away. It’s delicate yet powerful, like poetry caught in the arms of the sea. Just beautiful!...Hugs
