She Only Owns The Sea

To say she only owns the sea
Says but she only owns that part of me
To say she commands the winds
Says but she only owns that part of me
To say she sets the stars
Casts the moon
Inspires song
And emboldens toil
Says she owns my all

I don't have a comment about the textual meaning of this poem. Most poetry means kinda whatever you think it means and isn't relevant to all readers, for some it's spot on for others it's elevator music.

I really like the sounds you construct in this poem, the rhyme - where it rhymes - is simple no frills end rhyme, nothing bizarre, forced or experimental. Workaday rhyme. The really pretty part of this poem is the way you use the vowels, repeating the sounds so they resonate in a musical fashion. That's good work. Thanks for sharing.

Wow. Thank you for your kind words. I truly appreciate it.

This is a great illumination on the various parts of ourselves which we may choose to share.. but to know that you have the "all" of another.. I don't think there can be any higher love than that.. it's not ownership; it's belonging and true felt intimacy. Thank you for sharing.

Well, I am a Dom, but I do have a romantic streak. Thanks for the kind words, dear.

[Alexa Apothic Red]

Nothing wrong with that at all. Alas, I am but a helpless/hopeless romantic *insatiable*

Your poem reads with lyrical style & at the same time it feels like a puzzle as I try to dice up the domains you describe. Love the way you relate the various natural phenomenon to differing levels of being immersed in the love feelings! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
