Best Seaworld Poems


Premium Member Forbidden Love

He stood upon the cliffs awaiting the sunrise
Watching as the last of the moon descended
Anticipating the light meeting the sea
Listening to the waves kissing the shore.

As the tips of light began to reflect
He saw her on the rocks below
Sable hair embracing her shoulders
Skin so pale against the sea washed rocks

He watched as she finger combed her tresses 
Humming softly to the morn
A siren song to warm and greet him
Watching, yearning, wanting more.

She must have felt his eyes upon her
Green met fawn linking sea and sky
Caressing, calling, passions rising
Heart beats crashing with the tides

Both knew magic in their souls
Part man, part hawk he spread his wings
On gentle currents down he drifted,
Softly landing on the shore.

But soul mates they could never be
For she was not his kind
Through eyes that glistened with briny tears
She bidden him good life and goodbye

For her world was not of air and sun
Her world was wet and blue
She donned her skin and swam away
As selkie maidens do.

A Sea of Dreams

We all find a place...

The one space....

Where no one else can go,

Deep in our dreams so

 

A sea of dreams,

Where the light....

Golden glow,

We can let go

 

A sea of dreams,

Painted skies

The sunlight,

Created for you

For what lies in the heart...

Can only be true

 

Take your self there...

You owe it to your self

A sea of dreams,

To a place you know where

 

The birds fly by,

In a world known only to you

In a sea of dreams

Pain and hurt do not exist,

Only in the world you haven't missed

 

A bird, came in to sight...

Bursting free...

In to the light

This is you....

Dreaming right

 

Everything in sight...

On a sea of dreams

You can let it all go

Everything is not as it seems...

Merely ways...

To stop a bird...

Bursting free,

In to the light
