(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

Ohhhhhhh, MY. That first stanza. Swooning over that "wild moon heart," as I have one, also.
ReplyDeleteLove the thought of this happening again... like waves coming back over and over.
ReplyDeleteA second chance, nicely penned
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday
Much✏love
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.
ReplyDeleteLove 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!
ReplyDeletePlus romance too!
Simply lovely.
ReplyDeletethere is a global feel to your poem even in its intimacy. you're taking all in, through time. profound poem
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous Grace.
ReplyDeleteOh to love (again)! This is beautifully written.
ReplyDeleteA return again and again. Can't be beat.
ReplyDeleteI like the description of words as rain to be absorbed.
ReplyDeletecool
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteAah! The only thing that can make you crazy, yet you'd do it all over again. Fitting title.

Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI just love, "absorb your words as rain"
ReplyDeleteNice!
Mind-blowing last stanza!

ReplyDeleteOh my! I love everything about this poem!
ReplyDeleteThis may be my favorite of yours.
I love "beating my wild moon heart".
ReplyDeleteGrace you are wonderful. I found a mild eroticism in this writing and am glad for it!
