Like the Sea

Like the Sea

A Poem by Shalini Dinesh













Reach out to me, high
    Like the ebbing tide,
Encircling, all around
    Casting love spell, deep & wide…

Slide over me, gently    
    Like the ripples on the sea,
Spreading smoothly over
    Struck by cupid’s arrow, we shall be…

Shimmer on me, bright
    Like the golden sun upon the ocean,
Filling with different shades
    Carving perfectly into love’s passion…

Caress me, loving
    Like the milky waves on the shore,
Swinging back and forth constant
    Deep & deeper to its love’s core…

So much of this is beautiful, 'Filling with different shades ~ Carving perfectly into love’s passion…' and yes, very passionate and loving. Maybe the meter's out a little and could be corrected but, that doesn't detract from the emotion you've re-created with your words.

I love how you used the metaphor of the sea to describe something so sensual. While I was reading it, I could immediately feel the passion you hid between the lines. This poem is beautiful indeed.:)

This was very, very pretty. I'm definitely no poet, but this was well-written, in my opinion. The ocean is so beautiful, and so immense; it's a great choice to compare to love. Great job!

Very passionate and powerful. Your sea metaphors are very erotic and work wonderfully in this poem. I really love this. The overall imagery is great and so is your poem.

The sea is such a perfect form of passion and love... strong and moving, yet gentle and deep... Your words bring alive the wonder of love's shimmering spell...
