Best Oceans Poems
My cherished one How far will I love you
As far as where moons dissolve in deep seas
Beyond the edge of a tide's crimson hue
where your breath quickens sails with fevered breeze
Alone I 'll embark to our promised land
across long borders of unending pain
under still stars and above drifting sand
through anchored shadows of persistent rain.
Oh those foreign eyes yet not so distant
Your arms safe harbor of a warm embrace
Two hearts entwine against odds resistant
'Neath plum fog sky my lips outline your face
Water rises 'tween silent hope and time
But water falls and I will make you mine
You're a maiden so hot burning thoughts
whom melts ice inside deep waves salted
unfolding ocean swells kissing your feet
For once spoke those hot lips the truth shining
Sunshine pleasing warm beholding to
one's eye golden crowned jewel beauty
rainbow luster coloring pearl treasure
It's giving off their beauty pure free
that does not require something in return
A lady whom pleases the heart warm
Princess cut with deep class sparkling pure
utopia's adorable sun rise
How the body is heated and hear
her echoing heart beat in the chambers
Shining a future path dreaming ore
every single moment precious links
each one spent with you falling under spell
Love is like pure sparkling magic gem
unpredictable true and marvelous
Magic silk covers batting eyelids
enchanting soft lovingly flowers
beautiful petals held within the shell
Let the rose live forever and the sun
shines always endless times glistening gold

- Thank you my friend Liam !
Dare we wade these tempered shores
less fear of what the next wave brings
a tidal rush playing fates encore
with the music of a thousand wings
This last primeval surge of mystery
completes its voyage at our feet
lost from time's forgotten history
it seeks true peace without deceit
Each drop a story yet may recount
of places seen where myths awake
it brings to us this last account
of trials faced and risks to take
From darkened depths life will surely rise
When hope brings light to sightless eyes
My cherished one How far will I love you
As far as where moons dissolve in deep seas
Beyond the edge of a tide's crimson hue
where your breath quickens sails with fevered breeze.
Alone I'll embark to our promised land
across long borders of unending pain
under fading stars above drifting sand
through anchored shadows of persisting rain.
Oh those foreign eyes yet not so distant
Your arms safe harbour of a warm embrace
Two hearts entwine against odds resistant
'Neath plum fog sky my lips outline your face.
Water rises 'tween silent hope and time
But water falls and I will make you mine.
My beloved
How far will I love you
As far as where moons immerse in deep seas
Beyond the edge of a tide's crimson hue
Where your breath fills my sails with soft zephyr breeze
Lone I embark to our promised land
Across borders of secret pain
Under still stars,above drifting sand
through anchored shadows of rain
Oh foreign eyes,but never distant
Your arms'safe harbour of a long embrace
Two souls entwined,two hearts persistent
Beneath night's sky,my lips outline your face
Water rise, water falls between shores and time
Empty spaces still abhore our love,sweet tender and sublime
Reigning vitality you buoy on vigor of freedom
Hugging distant continents, caressing lively shores
Eternal since birth of time, ceaseless evermore,
Sensational, immense, omnipotent, abundant,
Enthusiastically you uplift glorious dawning sun
Greeting flamboyantly resplendent arc of horizon
Sprinkling golden glitter, propagating in unison,
Stoking aesthetic illusion into waves of passions,
Traversing civilizations from Atlantic to Pacific,
Rumbling leisurely, visiting tranquil beaches,
Hosting aquatics, exploring beauteous coral reefs,
Impulsive as can be, you are fierce, yet poetic,
Ferocious battlefield for the Navy, submarines,
Yet, fairyland luxurious, rocking passenger ships,
Sundown you reflect in aspirations romantic
Floating deep in womb, quixotic moon’s mystique;
Tides of your moods~ ebb and flow of emotions,
Boundlessly undulate, vainglorious true notion~
No force on earth can dare restrict your motion
For, you’re the magnificent, almighty blue oceans.

Bloom of jellyfish
Beethoven's Ninth, Ode to Joy
Muted Symphony
You remember oceans
Filling your wet footprints
With foam and salty brines
The tracks you left upon
Seashell crusted shorelines
You remember oceans
As immense illusions
Irregular and curled
Cutting slanted cliffs from
The wild ends of the world
You remember oceans
Majestic and complete
Like your heart
when whales dive
Under aqua castles
Where coral is alive
You remember oceans
In shifting turquoise green
Dawn gold to midnight blue
And, when tides are pulling
Oceans remember you

The Darkness of Cold Oceans Dwelling Deepest
Into the utter darkness of cold oceans dwelling deepest,
there is far beyond any glimmer of hope an outer limit
that defines a dark realm of the true supernatural reality
existing beyond any iota of human understanding on Earth.
In this dark realm lies a catacombic-womb of dead souls
bled white from the inside-out-turning of sand-blasted
nightmares of pure evil that envelope into a desert storm,
whereby living-dead apparitions appear in the shadows.
In this Procrustean bed there lies these horribly-tortured souls
who are like fossils of a past strife-torn life—a past without
any mercy since the unloved ghosts who exist there sense a
palpable pain erupting deep within every second of eternity!
This achingly slow-death falls into a sentence as forgiveness
now is impossible and a weathered-weakness of bowels spiced
from this seabed's loving memory appear as a bright-white pearl,
and the golden sun rises and sets as rats spread the Black Death!

(Quatrain)
misty horizon
oceans separate his lips
from drops on her cheeks
Or
oceans part his lips
from wet drops marking her cheeks
misty horizon
My schooner eases
into the tiger claw
that an umber peninsula
juts seaward.
The carnelian bay
beckons like honey
as I aim
for twilight's tangerine
and sun's waning citrine
in amber haze.
Papaya clouds whipped
by solar winds
breathe the siren lure
of bronze oceans
in the scriptural future
to my restless golden heart.

***
I’ve fallen for him, I’m head over heals
His picture I have, gives me so many feels.
His smile, his eyes, so beautiful to me,
When he looks my way, then what does he see?
I look at his photos, so dear to me
His eyes warm and sometimes sad
Whatever he tells me, all I can see
Is gentleness and love, nothing bad.
Just to hear his voice and what he will say.
Bringing light to my world, he brightens my day.
Oceans apart, it’s really not fair
But I love what we have, I know that he cares.
I won't forget the day we met for real
I love him and know him so very well
Every little thing makes me whole, I feel
Alive again, totally under his spell
With each day that passes, i'm starting to find;
He's sweet and compassionate, this angel of mine.
Each night i wait and each night I long
for morning to come, with him I belong
His little giggles, how he feels no shame
around me, how he talks, what he says
That's the way love evolves, he feels the same
about me, his loving, tender ways.
By candlelight, I lie awake in bed,
with visions of him skating through my head.
For morning I wait, for morning I long.
In the mean time, I listen to our song.
I dance, arms wrapped around me, I sway,
Rock back and forth with memories
I hope that one day, not just a piece
Of me will be with him, and this time stay
lakes ponds and rivers
niagara and angel
rain and blue oceans
Once I sailed the Oceans,
braving the blue cold water
like a restless young shark,
sea monsters meant naught
and mermaids sang to me....
Once I flew thru the Skies
freer than any eagle could,
seeing the world below
as heaven laid out for me
while I soared and soared....
Once I walked the Earth,
a small giant, a large grin,
as men stepped back
and women came forward....
But now Time's tempered
my once hot iron and cooled
my fevered brain, and God
has wrung me inside out
till my soul shone its brilliance
and I hid my old face in shame,
in shame, in shame....
Heaven and Hell are both gifts,
now I can see, fruit of the same tree,
the one Adam, Eve were told to flee....
And God gives so much, so much, and
so many chances, so many, many chances....
"Orgasmic Oceans Outlive"
Open skies, where early morning sun wakes...
Rippling small waves hook the shore,
Gladly playing with sun, pebbles and sand
Along this world orgasmic senses breathe
Sending each guest higher and higher
Making this wonderment like no other
Innate flight up, up and higher still
Canto in C, wild and passionate
Only sun and moon know where to be
Capturing silhouettes of reflective light
Engaging all to be part of this world
Arched in this fluorescence whales sing their love
Near each other, nuzzling in wintry water
Slowly engaging, with carnal coyness
Onwardly waltzing upon diamond rocks
Ultimately embracing all that is rapture
Taking hold of love light and glory
Living within this open dream existence
I wish never to awake or leave
Vessels in the distance swim between dolphins,
Each will carry us to dreamlike destinations
