like it is

like it is

A Poem by Donald Meikle

 Sipping slowly

Fast broken

Reading into

Words unspoken

 

Sailing into neaps and swollen

Tides of ethereal friendship

Kindled kindred souls 

sailing unseen waters

Blithely sharing

miles apart

Viewpoints of

heart

 

As daydreams 

of wet canvas

stroke cheeks

of Mersey fog

in salty

dirty brown

I had to peek the "ages" - and was glad I did... nice to meet you. Which oceans did we share?

Your rhymes are awesome. Nice use of "blithely" too...and I enjoyed "Mersey fog" because it sounds like 'mercy' but probably isn't.
