wellsprings of oceans sprout
drenching me, tempting me
of philtre that spins
perfumes my skin of you
sheathe me in your swirls
patchwork of waters against my chest
seeps into mold of a heart so pearlescent
you swim in my depths
not a wading bird to peck
you veneered and glistened of sun rays
capsize me, take me within your folds
to kiss a kiss a hundred times
before my second go
shall dive into your depths
drown not, but float
my nascent gills befriend the breath
Love, yet a life between life and death
You all witness the rebirth of us as love is born between us … …

I find your concept of “love … a life between life and death” both profound and beguiling. For so it shall be, as certain as we are born and shall perish. Love is the answer to our question of existence.
I adore your metaphors and connect from the first sentence … you drench me in truly beautiful verse.
I will read this over and over; I feel you….
❤️❤️❤️

I was on my tea break, sitting beside a fountain as a thought sprung to life and this is what you see of it… I was in my own dreamland.
If it is really love , I believe it would be like you have lived yet a new life in your lifespan… as if a terrestrial in love with oceans developed gills to breathe and dive into it…… fearless and hopeful….
Many Thanks for your appreciation…. ❤

So you have the gift of connecting to a part of nature with your own interpretations. Correct madam? It is difficult for a reader like me to understand all your posts, but I don’t know there is a magical pull i guess.
The water when touches our feet you compared it to love touching us?

I do not think so. It is not always necessary to know the writer’s intent.
