Never I jumped from thy ship not knowing how cold thine water rudely I commented and insinuated about your daughter, thine forgiveness lost from ye eyes no choice but to jump amongst thy cold legs all tangled into this seaweed clump. Mine petticoat weighting down succumbed to thy saturation baffled as to length of time one can stay at water's elevation, I shall stay focused there has to be a simple way out of here else I try and swim with petticoat and possibly drown I do fear. Thine skin turning numb thy water fierce upon thine bareness mine body growing tired canst bear to stay afloat in weakness Thine will I've done so wrongly so cast I be to die here at sea my only regret now is never being serenaded by a symphony. |

Heaving bosoms and ripping bodices methinks. Your words serenade me like a symphony. May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out. Irish proverb. |

Wonderful poem! I love the imagery you created with the written word! ~Jenn~ "Nature's first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaves a flower, but only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf, and Eden sank to grief. So dawn goes down today, nothing gold can stay." Robert Frost |

 I could not live without music. The last line here makes me sad. Wonderful tale though, Esmeralda. Loved it. Michael |
