deepens / the eye / and
mawkish suckle
the moon’s breast
to the tree and
their leaf white fingers
dead / to broken bone
and dust to a fitful
dreaming / oxbow
shores I leave
like the foot
of a spore / and a sea
dying
finds me alone.

Ah, Lucy, this is another splendid poem. It speaks to the sea in my heart. Your words are beautiful waves. I can feel their softness. I can feel their sadness.
and a sea
dying
finds me alone.
Beautiful…

Thank you for liking my lil poem from before. I hope you also enjoyed the little song-request I performed at the bottom. I’ve always found music and poetry have gone hand-in-paw (one may be more ferocious/gripping). These are fantastic words and sounds you’ve written, I look forward to reading more!
