(again)



you 
are the opaline clouds
salty foam from the roar of the ocean waves
beating my wild moon heart

and if i have to choose 
you (again)

i'll embrace your dewdrops
absorb your words as rain
and brush your ash over my singed skin

  1. Ohhhhhhh, MY. That first stanza. Swooning over that "wild moon heart," as I have one, also.

  4. I love the echo of ‘(again)’ in the title and the poem, Grace, and the romantic beauty in ‘beating my wild moon heart’. I especially enjoyed the final stanza.

  5. Love the title in parenthesis....almost like a voice within the parameters of a mountain canyon, shouting out the word....and then it echoes exactly the same back at the reader within the body of the poem. The parentheses make it really seem like an echo. And to use the word "again" which is what an echo does...well done!
    Plus romance too!

  10. I do love the wild moon heart, I think I have one of those, as well. I finally saw the moon this morning on my way to work.(sigh) It had been hiding for the last two nights.

  11. Aah! The only thing that can make you crazy, yet you'd do it all over again. Fitting title.
