The Longing
The stirring and fluttering of the heart
beeping and seeking
an echo from afar
as if the stars gently caressed
strings of a mandolin
to create ripples shore to shore
The returning tide
abounding in orgasmic crescendo
of love joy bubbles
swelling her heart in the knowing
of two hearts beating as one
in profound longing
Amidst the splattered sea shells
is a gift from the shore afar
a beautiful pearl for her pendant
gleaming with his love
to rest close to her heart

beeping for the echo
a sounding for depths
and true...people in love
heartrates often match
I like the use of splattering
of sea shells..
the waves and liquid
connotation
then smattering
on a beach on Jamaicas
north side there was a much
profusion of shell fragments
in the modern industry
fresh water pearls are an
affordable device of
affection for a love
and the beeping reminds
me of the hospitals too
having spent some time
there for other reasons
the close watch of the
loved ones in other
beds was a show that
even in times of duress
the true love carries on.
Thank U!
