' The Sand Palace

Rating: 3.2


I’m soothed, I’m cheered up;
For me the sea craves.
Spread are for me its blue wings,
With my frame, I feel the waves.

The sea misses me…it wants to lick
My bare skin, like a fish.
Spread are for me its blue wings,
Clouds will fly by - what a wish!

I own a Gothic sand palace.
The pearly sun’s drifted by the waves.
Once the passion was not exotic,
The sea raged with the lack of the faith.

I’ve been approaching it for a year,
The sea’s soothed, for me it craves.
Spread are for me its blue wings,
With my frame I feel the waves.

I own a Gothic palace.
That’s my only treasure – my wealth.
Spread are for me the blue wings,
And I hear the waves’ breath.

'The sea misses me…it wants to lick My bare skin, like a fish.' a jewel of a thought which reminds me that our desire for God is nothing as compared to God's desire for us

As I've probably said before Tsira I find your different ways of using the language and your images have a very refreshing effect, help me to see things differently.. this one particularly has that effect... x jim

This is a very poignant and touching poem, Tsira. I love how you've repeated this line- Spread are for me its blue wings- This is strong visually and is the work of a thinking poet, a poet of passion. Splendid poetry.10
