MUSIC OF THE BLUE
Exuding iceberg like warmth
Nurturing a bouquet of snow flaked roses
Transporting the spirit
Of serenading blue waters
Embracing the lightning of the world
In its imperfectly perfect mass.
AQUA SERENE
I look through the porthole
At the glistening mass
Of silver sparkling sand dunes
Only through salt-frothy tips
Identifying the blue
As I rock on a 'Caribbean' camel
Sky above- admires itself
As diamonds drip off its black silhouette
In a wavy reflection below
Moon clad breasts (virtual), pebble eyes
Waves coyly smile; shy sometimes
Embarrassed at it's vastness, its blueness
Rises a phoenix like angel, yet
Capturing the parched with humid arms
Leaving behind a breeding ground of multihued warmth.
