As a summer mistral
Navigates from the horizon
A lonely figure strolls on pristine white sands
As she listens to the voices of the ocean
......................
Profound whispers howling in the wind
Of gallant hearts dwarfed by the surging tide
As legends like the Titanic rise from the seabed
As legendary tales are narrated
From the deepest of abysses
Of an incarnate love
That blossomed on a lonely plank
Afloat in the behemoth Atlantic
As two human icebergs converged
Like supple palms to malleable clay
As the warmth of a clingy embrace
Levitated mercurial blood to the heavens
As two marooned souls
Lit their corporal bonfires on a three dogs night
Awaiting a greeting from a water banshee
As the thundering waves hovered over their temples
Two frozen lovers tendered their farewells
With a clamping kiss perpetuating for an eternity
......................
As whispers from the seabed
Kidnaps a lonely soul in the vacuity of a beach
Tears wet her eye lashes
As her mind wanders to the tranquility of the seabed
Where two souls are entombed
Frozen in a briny kiss
