warm sand and crisp breeze
veil salty skins wrapped in sweat
   and lusty thoughts —
an ocean of emotions
in crest and trough waves


sand dunes and plains
beneath my starved fingers
   hungry for your love —
yearning to drown in the sea
of your aquamarine eyes



 




The Somonka, is a Japanese verse of two unrhymed poems (5/7/5/7/7 - 5/7/5/7/7) OR LESS exchanged between lovers in a statement and response form. The earliest Somonkas can be found as far back as the 1st century AD. click here, if you like, for more information ; . click here if you want to read morew
