Premium MemberWrite on the Sea

A writer must write on the sea,
as the catalyst sails.

Each stranger and a day
makes a difference.

The salt at its peak, speaks
to me, not exactly divulging

what it had to say; the cold spray 
for days and days, in darkness too.

All aboard; only at ports disembarking,
but not until your up to your knees

in entertainment and steak, lobster,
fruit and fries.

Luggage still on the deck, why bother,
closeting your wardrobe -

so much to do; look under the curtain;
find your inkwell and get at it,

but not until it’s time to go to bed
after the chocolate fountain.


Premium MemberScarborough Beach in Winter

Down the rusty staircase, moving rather slow 
I’m heading to the Scarborough beach
It’s all white above, so it is below 
Snow keeps falling, piling up inch by inch
Poster with boat trips fell under the tree
Today’s weather is not fit for cruises
Either fishermen won’t go out to sea
Certainly they’ve got credible excuses
Muddy waters splash on the snow-white shore
A couple of dog walkers stroll along, apparently
Like they always do, like they did before
Seagulls sound sad, but the dogs are happy.

Premium MemberMy Dream Destination

A far off land I would love to see, where the land is unique and free. Green valleys to waterfalls to a pretty blue sea, soft warm sand beneath my feet fills me with glee. I could learn about a new culture and to waterski, while dancing traditional dance under the huge tree. My dream destination must wait for me, but I can dream away, will you agree? Yes, dream all about my heavenly trip is my plea, I can smell the colorful flowers, food and tea. My far off place is called Tahiti to see a bee.

Premium MemberUnder the Moon

Heard the sound of a horn this morning
Pulled back the curtains and realized
The night dream still must be going 
The waves splashed by before my eyes
The tourist ferry had just moored
Passengers disembarked on the shore
It seems that your face has appeared
For a split second, or maybe more
I began to look closely, but very soon
I got dressed and hurried down the stairs;
The snow swirled under fainting moon
The streak of dawn spread in the air.

Premium Member Me In Three Was A Dream

Me in three was a dream, when I started out young and free. He went down on one knee, a box with a ring oh no with a key. The key to his heart was his plea, would I stay or flee? We had some hot tea, watching out over the blue sea. We would wed under the pretty big pink tree, now with baby we are three.


Premium MemberPlace By the Sea

I once had a special place by the sea;
A quiet get away where I loved to be;
My favorite place for God and me.

A solemn place,  most Devine
And serene, free of people for a season.

The only sounds I heard were occasional fog horns,
the roaring of the sea, and the still small voice of God.

It was delightful living 4 blocks from the sea.
Now I reside 2000 miles from that beloved sea.

At some point in their lives, like me, I wish
that everyone had a place by the sea; a place
where the sea gulls flock by the sea cliffs,
Where the bounties of nature come together.

Those big cargo ships from far eastern
Shores slowly flowing under the Golden
Gate Bridge was always a sight to see.
I sure do miss my special place by the sea.

Premium MemberSupper at Sea

Snapping it up with so much zeal
The shiny black shag with its slinky eel.
The sand eel squirmed and slipped back to the sea.
The shag said stop, please stay with me!

You want to eat me said the edible eel.
I do not want to be your meal.
I see you swim under the sea
At speeds much faster than slithering me.
You will swallow me whole.
And then where will I be?
In my belly, of course, said the shag smilingly!

Premium MemberIsland Time Is For Me

Island time is for me watching the deep blue sea. I am truly set free, there went a yellow bee, loving naps under the tree. #3 Island ~ Rhyme

Premium MemberTurquoise Chimera-Sea Fantasy


   

   You are my midnight love chimera.
   Beneath a deep aquamarine sea.
   We met innocently and affably, 
   Giggling and smiling, so innocently.

   But…passion’s gates opened wide.
   And its aquatic, aqueous mouth…
   Swallowed us, whole and most divine.
   Our soul’s instantaneouslyintertwined!

   What entity, created divine, instant intimacy.
   An under the sea, divine, exotic gratification.

Premium MemberBefore The Day Turned Into Night - ITQ

Sitting on sand under the sun,
watching my grandkids having fun,
I observed how sanderlings can
be so close to us when they run.

It was such a warm summer day.
Looking at the sea gulls at play,
at the sun glints from the sun’s rays,
at the sea’s blue hues on display.

While admiring the awesome sight,
my joy, delight turned into fright.
I recalled the Galveston’s plight
before the day turned into night.

When the sea surged, thousands perished
The same sea that I just cherished…

Premium MemberWinter Magic

Shrunken by the cold weather, winter magic gathers us together. Shivering as naked trees, we travel across the seas. We join our effort to see magic under our knees. We pray to reach home, our heart is not alone. A magic winter delights us on its own. A magic winter provide us with fulness, despite of its dulness. Under the grey skies we feel small. Quietly at night, the waves heat fast our boat. Trying to sleep, we wait for the marmaid calls. The magic of another winter, embraces us with our recalls.

       You are my midnight love chimera.
       Beneath a turquoise sea.
       We met innocently and affably.
       Giggling and smiling, so innocently.

       But…passion’s gates opened wide.
       And its aquatic , aqueous mouth…
       Swallowed us, whole and most divine.
       Our soul’s instantaneously intertwined!

        What entity, created such instant intimacy.
        An under the deep sea, exotic gratification.



      .Chimera~ something that exists as an aspiration…
       but is not achievable in this world at all.
       Of Greek etymology.~ a fire-breathing monster 
       that has a lion’s head, a goat’s body and the
       tail of a snake!


Premium MemberHello Beautiful Ice Float

Hello beautiful ice float
You remind me of a double scoop
From the Dairy Queen
I wonder if there is a waffle cone
Under the water

Hello gorgeous ice float
I wonder if you are the one
Who took down the Titanic
And drowned people who did not have a chance
I wonder if the band is still playing
Under the water

Who did you leave under the sea?
Was it a black engineer building dreams?
And a brown baby with shackled hands little feet
An angel in disguise floating in the deep

Who did you throw in the ocean that day?
Was it a famed priest known to pray
To African ancestors whose hearts await
Arrival of those you stole away

Who did you drown in the big blue water?
Grandma grandpa son daughter
Artist singer soldier doctor lawyer
Because your soul is rotten out of order

Who was the wicked one that day?
Who inherited the curse of the slave?
You threw them away in the blue green sea
They were not stowaways they were holy seeds.

Premium MemberDark

Dark is the night
          under the moonshadow,
           walking to the suburbs
            with a one way ticket,
               going to nowhere 
                 to be be found.
