Float Me


I have been
the flotsam
of a sunken bark
on a sea gone calm

You
the jetsam
of a drunken captain
gone mad

Together now
we float
on the salty waves
and in the tides
of our desires

Unique use of the words "flotsam" and "jetsam".

~ May you enjoy the swells and the troughs; the tidal ins and the outs---the ebbs and the flows of your sea of love!

highly unique and intriguing use of language

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
