inspiration in her arms


(in black ink my love may still shine bright – shakespeare)

 

reciting shakespearian sonnets

wearing what one wears within waves

the clouds cover like white bonnets

and from the april heat we’re saved

 

steadied from interlaced fingers

while waves try to wash us ashore

this mesmerized moment lingers

wherein with kisses i adore

 

you splash me with your silken hand

then playfully push me away

i chase you back onto dry sand

you let me catch you in our play

 

pull me down unto the towel

your hands behind my sea soaked hair

where we are verbs without vowels

within another kiss we share

 

whatever makes poems a sonnet

forgotten under april clouds

bikini with my hand on it

i wish the waves could wash the crowd

far from the shore so we can be

unbridled in intimacy
