Sea nymph of Pacific pleasures
Many a man has fallen for you
Enticing them with hidden treasures
Dressed in crystal azure blue

Undulating waves in perfect motion
She casts a glance and tides obey
Mistress of the vast blue ocean
Changing appearance each night and day

When she smiles, the sea is fair
Her sunlit waves kiss velvet sand
Tradewinds blow her silken hair
She beckons a lover to take her hand.

Tho’ be forewarned of her fickle moods
Changing as the skies turn gray
Her oceanic attitudes
A tempest tossed on stormy day

Don’t ever turn your back on her
She demands respect; don’t be a fool
Seducing waves of blue allure
May suddenly turn her tides on you

She softly sings her ancient songs
Calling her lover from upon the shore
She knows his heart to her belongs;
That he’ll return to her once more.

Bewitching temptress, lady in blue
Who can resist your mystical call?
Men through the ages have fallen for you
Never could one, resist you at all.


Passion,imagination
and intellect
running together...
Poetry in motion~~~

Aloha with
warmest regards, Koko
