by the sea

Sea; I just shoot your modern pages,
And your flying fish challenge my pen,
Sailboats draw themselves rhymes,
I join you, among the big poems.

Sea, you are quiet, I am in love,
Your storms are the most subtle dictionaries,
Your paper heavier than the sky
Lies down as a dizzy woman..

Sea, it is necessary here, to write it in colors,
You are more vast than my imagination,
Deeper than an unhappy love affair,
You are the book which never finishes …

Fantastic poem, dear Yann! I immersed in your Sea vision and felt what you so masterfully expressed. Ahhh, the Sea has inspired you beautifully. I will save this to enjoy it again.

Love,

Superb is right. The sea is a metaphor or just as a visual in writing that I'm particularly partial to. Exceptional stuff here. And here I thought nothing is more vast than imagination...

I have to say, I would never have thought of doing it this way.  This is original, and I like it.
