..the froth that foams at the mouth of any love, be it a bosoming ocean or a siren'd woman. ..
you delight them both with your voice and pwoer; the iamges so securely seduced and induced as to hypnotic effectuals. . .
i love this voice from you.
who cares about sand in all the wrong places?
all the curves and waves and lilts and thrills and crashing. . .
i could drown in stuff like this.
mmm.

I guess the sea is good enough to be one with mean Gene, at least you versed the attraction. But I don't like sharks and salt water. Hey the beach is alright though. nice poem

this poem is alive with the senses and metaphor

one can taste the sea salt air (notice I did not say smell! you

really can taste it!) the sea is full of itself and a force

to be reckoned with much like the sensual soul, unleashed

like the ocean waves, crashing, crashing, wild and untamed

like the power of any consuming passion...

great poem...

nice touch to a cold morning...LOL

Gene,
Sensuous erotic currents on the surface and beneath, beautifully phrased and admirably controlled, and great use of the subjunctive setting the essential tone.
