Wave and Shore

I am a wave. From far I come to you Swimming with desire. In wild curls I come, Riding with music, Travelling on sunbeams. Within my hidden folds, I carry the thoughts of love, Wishing to rest on the shore. Lashing playfully, I come, Looping into a sensational hug! But how sad, I can only embrace you Just for a brief moment! Over our heads, seagulls wing. Around us, soapy foams giggle. In wild ecstasy, I roar, Crashing my head on your breast. But I am made to drift away, Leaving nothing behind, But a stretch of dampened sand, Reminding that we have once met. Can I ever hold you again? Wish I could once more, Rush into your arms. Sometimes I feel, I am on an eternal journey. With desires unappeased, I continue traveling miles. Let us be a pair of seagulls, Flying in tandem, you forever, Staying close to me, With your wind under my wings!

Valsa, I love the ocean upon the sky vibe, “Over our heads, seagulls wing” and “Let us be a pair of seagulls, Flying in tandem …” Also the thought of being taken back on the tide, “But I am made to drift away, Leaving nothing behind, But a stretch of dampened sand, Reminding that we have once met.” A Fave for me so I can surf your wave again and again. Congratulations on Poem of the Day!

Waves are like emotions, they touch the heart evenly, leaving a lasting impression. Embracing for a moment, would be enough to last a lifetime. This is beautiful and tender, with a gentle longing. I'm placing this in my favorites, to read again and again. Congratulations Valsa, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

I can hear the ocean foam, giggle. Your description of the wave is majestic. It's too bad the ocean was unappeased and wanted something else, like most still soul-searching. Congratulations on the POTD, Valsa! Hugs ~Anaya

wow, this is FANTASTIC. I'm going to fave this beauty. By the way, if you put a quote above it and are able to add a picture at the top, Constance will score it really hight.

Thanks a lot for your kind suggestion. Actually I was in a hurry to go out on a family function. Thanks a lot for your Fave and comment dear Andrea ! I wonder why Constance has disqualified my poem without giving it even a special mention. Quote and picture are not mandatory. All the contests are judged on a single person's discretion!
