Evening Tide of Ocean Dreams

Ocean dreams where Oyster shells come adrift with the Tide...

The rise and fall of a lover's heart... 

Evening tides that tickle toes and flows 

where love can lie close to the base of a cliff  

where feelings entwine on the sound of waves      

against the caves of undiscovered lust borne  

in sand dunes where pearls have rubbed against  

an oyster shell where Roses grow in shades of 

trusting entanglements... forever the scent of love.

I can't think of imagery that is more fitting for picturing the power of love. Just ask the shore with its caves and sometimes-scoured beaches. Great imagery for how love can hollow us out, cover us back up, & twist us around . . . all while we're thinking: ECSTASY! *smile* Fondly, Margie

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Margie... your review is a classic view of how the Icean and waves 🌊 can seduce lovers when secluded caves offer a place of quiet moments and enchantment. truly, Pat

Ah, this was like a sultry perfume of sand and sea beckoning the reader to a seaside romance. Exquisite for me, I'm a huge lover of the sea...so much, the moon may be jealous of me...he is always pulling at her, isn't he? :)

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Fabian... thank you for reading my impressions
of romance embedded by the Sea. There is a cosmic force that draws us to walk along the shore of dreams. truly, Pat

Nearness to the sea, it's hypnotic rise and fall, the swelling and ebbing waves never fails to create that powerful primal pull. What better way to celebrate love than amidst the immense beauty of the life sustaining ocean. Your words have such depth of emotion and passion. My compliments on the delightful imagery, dear Pat.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear DIVYA... that “powerful primal pull”... only a poet could compare the
Ocean waves to the passion of lovers with these three words. Thank you for a charming review that lingers in dreams.
truly, Pat

Dear Pat,

I thoroughly enjoy beautiful love poetry that flows and grows into a sensual theme ～ adding the rise and fall, the undulations of the ocean, the thrusts of its waves into secluded caves, filling every niche with the lust of evening tides, turns it into a romantic dream poem that subtly, but surely, reveals the author's own depths of passion … embracing, luring the reader's imagination to follow every foaming trickle of desire's warming emotion.
Well, what can I say, but that you've inspired me with the enthrallment of your words and that picture of powerful surges in imagery is sooo inviting.
And, "the scent of love" never fell from a sweeter breath … a most delectable write.

Thank you, Dear Poetess, for this scintillatingly rousing moment shared.
Hugs to you, Pat ⁓ Richard 🍃

oh man! the Cafe' is ablaze with romance this morning.... last three poets i have read have been "in the mood" ;) great poetry Pat... your command of setting scene with motion and imaging shines ... i am going to get up today and be in love ;)))))))))))))))))))))

[Patricia Wedel]

dear E... the ocean 🌊 can hypnotize your emotions and the breeze is such a tease... at least we can be vulnerable. Thanks for joining the mood that poets elude. Have a smacking good day. Fondly, Pat

[Einstein Noodle]

you too Pat! :)))))))))))))))))))))))

[Dara]

There is something so very romantic about the ocean and your words bring it all home so beautifully. I especially like the first two lines where you compare a lover's heart to the rise and fall of the tides. The symbolism and images you share throughout the entire piece are just magnificent. One can tell you are a romantic at heart Pat.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Dara... you are keen on enchantment when the tide teases our romantic notions and the sun is hiding behind a cloud to watch the overtures of pleasure seekers. The Sandpiper must surely know a lot of secrets. I am a romantic at heart, and I bet you are also. truly, Pat

[jacob erin-cilberto]

damn, this is one of the best love poems i have ever read.

dear Jacob... lovely to know that my years
have brought me to poetic persuasions that stir the senses. Your review is like a stained glass window in colors that reflect the Oceans 🌊 perspective to capture a sonnet of beauty that endures the tides and waves of romance. Truly, Pat
