Torrential Wind

By:  Adam Vanderven©       04/07/01

Gyrating across sweet smelling waters
Whirling from a place deep within
Her scent comes like a gust of wind
Her beauty which once I thought could not be surpassed
Grows as clouds gather and intertwine
Building a site that has become a drug to mine eyes

The air is stunning and warm to the touch
As it brushes violently against my skin
Bringing a salty hue to my body
Different, enticing, filling senses
A fresh, anew feeling
Mouth wide open, eyes wondering taking in all.

Water all around banging against my firm torso
Crashing, upon me like a ship at sea
Skin feeling, moist, hot sending goose bumps
Nerves spazing, awaiting, tingling
Sounds rushing through quite moon light
Salty drops following the contours of my skin

Kisses embarking on a new journey
Salivate, intensify barely touching unheard of places
Stern rising hard, above troubled waters
Releasing moist, sticky wetness and then,
Musical rhythm moans faster, longer, deep in pleasure
As waves bang harder against vessels

The air raging salty drops falling fast and hard
Crashing, banging, hurtling, almost over turning
Holding steadfast gasping for dear life
Deep inside places of untold utopias
Boards creaking, bending, flexing under stress
Thunder billowing deep across unsettled waters

What began as a gentle perfumed breeze
Escaped into cries of sheer strength and rocky seas
Rumbling from far away
Shacking, quivering, escalating,  poising for release
A great gust bursts, explodes, erupts into a foam
Lighting emits into colors of ecstasy

Gapping winds, effing waters now escape
Thunder in the distance calms
Winds final yet lasting kiss of night
Turns away calm, resting, resolving its captive instincts
Two ships lay upon still, unwavering perspired moisture
TorrentialWind now satisfied searches again
Bringing two lost ships home.

Some very good double imagery here, Adam.
The comparison of lovemaking to a violent storm is done very well. (hot!!!)
If I might make a suggestion, though? I would trim some of the "wordiness" in places.
But then I didn't write this, so consider it merely my humble opinion, for what it's worth?
All in all, it's a fine poem with a unique approach to an ageless theme.
Thanks, Billy.
