Oceanic ripples
Resonate with sound
And fill the night air
With a scent so profound.
A calm air so light
Yet heavy the same.
Ensnared by the motion
Made clear by the waves.
Thick aura so sweet
Makes this night a dream.
An endless horizon
Of things it can mean.
Halfway in the water
That seems all too cold.
Reluctant to move
Beyond and be bold.
But easing in slowly
It seems to subside.
The freezing surroundings
Just vanish and die.
A body so light
Becomes just a ship.
Riding all the waves
Swaying with the drift.
The body once cold
Adapts to the sea
And blends in its heat
To merge and be free.
Sheets of blue water
Carry me back
Front and around
I see the sweet black.
Watching the waves
Ascend to their top
And shatter so strong
When hit by the rocks.
I like the imagery that you used. The ocean is a wonderful place. Every time I go there I think of poems and songs to write. It is a glorious source of inspiration.
