do you dare dive into this ocean , of convolution and paradox, or just watch by its sanded gate, lured by the rhythm of the waves that sing their siren song for you, dare you leave your safe haven now, and risk a trip through the unknown, to be swept up in the rollercoaster of twists and turns through life,love and madness, while attempting to tame the ocean, only to be knocked down again, have you the heart and guts to look past her superficial shell of contradiction and confusion, and seek the peace of the depths, the clarity in the unclear, the beauty in the absurdity, the madness in the beauty, can you reach deep enough to find the center, to her welcoming and loving heart, does if feel like home to you too, would you dare dive in?

A fine write with a pondering finish. I like. As for diving in... only when the water is warm. Thanks for sharing. |

have you the heart and guts to look past her superficial shell of contradiction and confusion, and seek the peace of the depths, the clarity in the unclear, the beauty in the absurdity, the madness in the beauty, I especially liked that verse and the feelings of no fear.... This probably sounds silly but it reminded me of a commercial that goes on to say, "the biggest risk is not taking one" Loved your poem!! |

I know about that safe haven, risks are a part of life though. |

I like your poem and the way you just SAY whatever is on your mind. That's the way to be, Lady.......  "Love makes the world go around" |

Probably if they are terminally ill. I love a good fantasy, but why risk losing it? ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

The most alluring beaches erode in time. Sometimes those fish have large teeth and live beyond their landing. Good fishing to ya. |

Nothing quite tempts me like a bit of risk for a wondrous reward. Nicely written. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

A Brooklin Girl! Kool! Yes you can handle anything, your eyes shout it out loud. I love the poem. There is a guy I have given the invitation to dive in and he waits on the sandy shore, so tempted, but glued in that spot. He only knows the surface of what he means to my heart and life. Others see more than he does. Thank you for touching where I have been. |
