I’m thinking of running to the ocean; Any chance I could get you to come with me? I’m really wishing this sound I’m hearing Was your voice... So make it be-- Explain to me what you notice When the undercurrents challenge the surface. I’m wondering how your eyes look near the sea; Would you trust me when I speak of such splendor? I’m completely gripped by the notion Of your face composed of the shore... So indulge me-- Tell me what you know About the way the light reflects under the waves. I’m dying to know what you’re thinking; Would you fill me in on all entailed therein? I’m suddenly captured by the hint Of your acquaintance with all things tranquil... So follow me-- I’ll have to show you what I’ve learned From a sunrise accompanied by restless tides. -kh 12/02 just a hang-up call and the quiet breathing of our persian we call cajun on a wednesday... |

Splendor? oh yes...you write the blue waved reverie so splendidly. hmmm....now ya got me wondering what color our eyes will be by Lake Shore Drive (me thinks mine will still be moth brown..but they will be smiling) Another very cool write poetess K ... keep them coming...ya know this moth's ocean thirst is never quenched. |

'I’m suddenly captured by the hint Of your acquaintance with all things tranquil... So follow me-- I’ll have to show you what I’ve learned From a sunrise accompanied by restless tides.' Very cool...JM illustrated for you! Some really great lines in this SP. And yes, the ocean... |

"I’m suddenly captured by the hint Of your acquaintance with all things tranquil..." Yes, that's the one. The wind is coming in now with the rain and I can smell the ocean. Thank you for sharing these images. |

sp, there is only one thing more beautiful than the ocean and that is the ocean reflected in a lover's eyes. This is surely a beauty to keep. Dee Stand straight and tall, not the reflection as others see you, but as you truely are. Clearwater |
