The Wind And The Sea

The Wind And The Sea

Stained with the wilful moods

of the tempestuous sky

the concupiscent sea sings

to the wanton wind

waves arched into undulating

curves

heaving, cresting, caressing

soliciting the wind

tempting him

with her allure

desiring his

stimulating touch

to kindle, to ignite, to inflame

her arousal

until in union

their lusty

motion, emotion, elation

rises and falls

surges and swirls in an

ardent dance

erupting 

onto the shore

spilling over

long dark tresses

of seaweed

shadows

that lie glistening

in the moonlight

upon the pale naked sand

Paper Boat Of Dreams

Down rain filled gutters

into little streams

I skipped beside

my paper boat

following my dreams

I freed it by the river

under the willow tree

my little boat a quiver

swirled off to the sea

A sea of emotion

was soon to ebb and flow

if it ever made the ocean

I would never know

Twirling through rainwater

rushing down streams

I'm trying hard to stay afloat

on my paper boat

of dreams

A Windy Day (Southend-on-Sea)

Masts 

protrude

erect and naked

from berthed hulls

Flagrantly probing

the cloudy skies

Penetrating the cries

 of squabbling seagulls

 their pink feet

dangling

they wobble in

the wind

above the

flaccid sea

The Mermaid's Song

Welcome lover to my nightmare

just a short walk down the stone stair

Slip into the grave waves with me

to the treasures under the sea

I'll dress you in fitting attire

With fish hooks and rusty wire

On my lips and kisses you'll taste

your poisons and chemical waste

My embrace you'll never forget

much more tight than a fishing net

Come my lover heed my sweet song

for I've been lovesick far too long
