A Rose of inclinations

The battles that are oft taken

Ridden by the shored earthly rocks

A foaming frown refusing to settle

Crashing up the seabed to deplored life

They cheer by simple touches

Of fine wine glasses of the sea

Whites releasing sea breeze freshness

Waving another goodbye to reach out in hello

They travel through oceans

Crossing continents to meet again

Through distant suns they may royally glow

Upon peaceful nights reflecting a poetic star

For birds may sip a bounty of their placid givings

Poetry written on frugal sands they let go 

As life is reincarnated through each wave

Bodies of pure blood would grow 

Yet they would pull away in ebony

Only to touch again in ivory crust

If love was to be contained a natural scene

Waves of the sea would sit on each page

Frozen in time they are roses entwined

Building a state of chained council calm

For patient lovers would learn only of sentiment

Upon the sounds of gentle waves of kisses

Hum upon hum meeting secretly in the dark 

Elusively reclined upon faint silvery lines

[An owl on the moon]

Deep is the ocean of loving, and your words are wild waves of light. This is richly sensual, filled with the vastness and intimacy of love's treasures, and with each reading, I see more come alive on your book's pages.

Like the rhythmic strum of breaking waves on shore, this poem has true feelgood quality that wash away ones troubles!

Marvellous metaphor in metronomic, mood inducing cathartic repose, lovely!

[Phill Oz O'fee]

Wave motion hides a duality of impact; calm lapping against a placid shore or destructively crashing dramatically upon the rocks! A bit like the different states of love..! Great emotional and imaginative write – loved the ‘ebb and flow’ of this piece!
