Blissfully Adrift

Sailing away ............ lovely!

Blissfully Adrift

How breath-taking

To traverse your waves

And eagerly grasp

An opportunity to share

To freshly taste

The saltiness of engaging lips

Boldly experiencing

Rolling climax cresting breakers

My fingers sail through

Your golden sandy hair

As I gaze intensely

Into eyes of cerulean beauty

My heart swells

With your tidal ebb and flow

Tsunami tossing

To stimulate my rippling emotions

Willingly I capitulate

To strong currents of desire

And surf spectacular spume

Satisfied to float blissfully adrift

My fingers sail through
Your golden sandy hair
As I gaze intensely
Into eyes of cerulean beauty

This is really excellent! I love the way you carry the floating metaphor thru-out. The title really drew me in becuz it's the kind of phrase we all wish we'd thought of -- nice sound, as well as meaning. You activate all the senses in your imagery & nicely paying attention to the way the words that you use SOUND & reflect the sound/sensations of the setting you write about (((HUGS))) fondly, Margie

Nice work Phill! Suggestive images flowing through this poem aptly lead us to the tsunami. Does the crest of desire get any greater? Your phrase 'spectacular spume' leaves little to the imagination! It's fun playing around with these extended metaphors.

Ah cerulean eyes! Such beautiful choice of words throughout. You set me in a dreamlike reverie and the illustration accompanying this rather vivid poem is apt. Wonderful writing Phil! Keep up the good work! Cheers!

Excellent wordplay! It almost sounds erotic! Nice work!

:-) This is just one of those " close your eyes and let in all sink in" poems... I love this, the wording, metaphors, raw emotions to oozing love....so nice you!

The emotional response to the right person, place, or other is shown beautifully with poise.
