Sea Of Tranquility

By day my dreams go drifting of their own design I find my mind wandering down to the waterline for a change of scene let's you and me go swimming in the sea of tranquility leave all cares behind we'll swim away sometime soon and bathe by the light of the silvery moon

Thank God, It's Friday

I'm on an island marooned a lonely castaway beached at the waterline launching bottles out to sea abandoned high and dry my boat went down it ran aground but wait what's that I see can it be a footprint in the sand someone to lend a hand my ship's come in it's at the quay no more sending signals from the shore the weekend's here to rescue me

Nature's Bride

The porcelain empyreal
Blended itself
Like a bride
In the palette of
Amber blush.
It contoured it's
Cheek bones of mounts
With liquid onyx,
With ruby mascara
It mascaraed it's lashed rays
That curled down
On the waterline of its eyes,
And with the orange veil
It cloaked & hid it's
Shy face covering and
Containing the sky.

Time For Another

Little man
with a pointed red hat
sits on the dashboard
remembering that
life is a journey
a sojourn a safari
its time to run like our children
forgetting the day
dark hair streaming behind them
dark eyes sparking happy
they chase their father at the waterline
dodging the waves
two sons 
three daughters
all sturdy all healthy
our eyes meet over heads
time for another.

Milla Charlette

Nana’s a safe harbour for a child,
a rattling baby taking water
at the christening font, and fluid
in the lungs. Little’s of consequence

for you, ceremony or theology, or
clan gathering. We pilfer your
routine deftly as rogue genes have
jellied your muscle. But held above

the waterline you’re safe now, if
perplexed to tears, the agony of taking
passage from death to life not quite
surpassing navigation of more hostile currents.

Premium Member White Diamond Morning

Snowflakes gently falling, glowing like diamonds
In the early morning rays.
The sun reflecting off the frozen shore line,
Illuminating a diamond glow.
The hoar frost gently dressing up the barren trees,
In a winter's coat of white.
White mist slowly clings, above the frozen waterline
Leaving white diamond crystals, dancing in the river's dawn.
The winter's air hangs heavily on each breath, while
Gazing on this beautiful untouched winter's spot.

The Magnetic


"The Magnetic" 

Scarlet
pulls you covert in
now undercover
no need for 
stilettos

the undertow 
flows upwards
raising stakes 
and ropes
for a second coming

off-red lets go
indigo glows 
above the waterline 
diamonds sharp 
watch us, and we 

we are read 

the magnetic 
electric
draws us home
