In Your Pulse Of Salt


oh who
art thou
that lingers
upon me
from passion’s
song played in
sweetest lullaby

liquid notes tenderly
written from
tidal breath of
winds north blown
in your sighs
of lucid whispers

they beckon me
as I unknowingly
touch your name
in sand
creased under
my own skin

totally immersed
from an
ocean of thirst
that salt pumps
from a heart and
my lips touch
the taste
of excitement
and I drink
you in

do not let
me be denied
in these waves
of the edge
as I swim
your pulse

"wish your room had room for two" John Mayer

This is about as pretty a piece as I've ever read~
A poetess of gentle awakening ... just lovely~

Lady Helen, this is just so soft and sensual and as lovely as a Spring breeze blowing across a Cape Cod beach!

You are such an amazing writing and I love reading your poems.  I may have told you that before but if I did it's okay cause one can never have enough affirmation and praise.  

Hugs, Marti
