breathless

by Julie Adams

emotions
sway in the breeze
where far off seas
find me breathless

the mantric flow
lures me in
high tide, submerged
in salty anticipation

i listen to the whisper
of conch shells
she knows me, the sea
she greets me
feeds me

like a whale
she breathes my name
into the unsuspecting sky

I carry away with my these lines:
"She knows me, the sea, she breathes my name into the unsuspecting sky."
Lovely, peaceful. :)

excellent, thanks for the words as well! I can very much see what you were saying about the rhythmic similiarities :) The last four lines here are a gift, love it
