John Gondolf Poet Rhyme

Skinny Dipping

Skinny Dipping in your love
to gentle coos of mourning dove;
(dreams that I’ve been dreaming of)
while lying ‘neath the stars above.

Love so deep, cerulean blue,
dive in head first, this love ensue;
dreams of hearts that touch anew
make ripples in this brilliant hue.

Love so warm like mineral spring
that flows ‘round hearts as breezes bring
effervescence to this fling
as whispers from the heavens sing.


April 16, 2019

This poem was born when a friend mentioned diving
head first into love; I immediately thought when you
dive into love, you bare your soul and thus you are 
skinny dipping in love. Just a different take on falling in love.

Nette Onclaud April 16, 2019 at 5:25 PM i like where you took the 'skinny dipping' theme, john... charmed by your sweet artwords.. huggs John Gondolf April 16, 2019 at 5:38 PM Hi Nette, thank you for your thoughts. This idea came to me the other night. "Skinny dipping in your love" has so many playful possibilities...most of those I decided I better keep to myself lest I be expelled from the Soup. All the best my dear friend. John
