Tulle Strewn Universe

Broth of froth fulfils its duty Calls me forth for cleansing Seaside summons with her beauty Sordid sins, my drama mending Tickled toes consume her tulle Shell gems of replenishment Roll readily, her threaded spool Thighs swarmed by her punishment Then she tugs me, draws me down Fuelled with force which drives the world Turgid topaz, dispatched waves drown Sorrow in her salty spray, solacious swirl Fuzz of ripped tulle rings in my eardrums Ocean submerged, my private universe Fizz of gripped torso invites redemption Crystal next day newness she serves 11th September 2020 My Private Universe Poetry Contest Sponsor : Julia Ward

Sending you so many congratulations Sigrid on your first place win with this incredible imagery of the sea ~ such wonderful descriptions. I too adore the sea being a Piscean, and enjoyed your most inventive style of describing her ~ wonderful! With kindest thoughts Ann xx

Sigrid, I'm befizzled and befuzzled by your wonderful talents applied to the theme of private universe. Being a fan of the sea AND of your writing, this was a double joy. Big congrats on your first place win, no easy task! ~ John

Yes, this write was a Kitchen bench 'quickie' before running out the door. - just happened Contest was listed then, as I was intending to write this, as previous poem written depicted a woman in psychological need, imagining the ocean to 'escape' mentally, next poem was going to be her physically going to the sea!
