Ocean Warmth

Originally posted and blasted 03/28/2024

soft beckoning fingers translucent blue greet me in the bright sunlight

cooling hot feet and instantly refreshing an overtaxed weary soul

gulls squeal overhead looking for something yummy or unguarded

opaque shapes don’t hide the sun as the warm breezes gently kiss

suddenly I inhale an entire grove of coconuts and she’s there

laying on a blanket bikini laden dark soft skin drinking up the sunlight

refreshment of her design in hand complete with umbrella and ice

sporting Jackie-O sunglasses and enjoying all life has to offer

legs trim and long and strong and beautiful bringing my mind to a place where pain doesn’t exist

she smiles a wry smile at me and as usual challenges me, I feel the shock as the cold water laps up my ankles

stepping ever forward I am washed in the spray of soft white foam the smoothly caresses my arms and legs as I enter

I duck and dodge a behemoth of a wave just as an airplane flies overhead affixed to the back, car insurance ads

it’s up to my neck now, be careful, many drown here that are younger and fresher

a helicopter juts by and I wave that I am ok as a wave slaps my face with its cold fingers

that slapped burned as the salt water swirls in my mouth and I spit it out

kelp, seaweed, aliens I am unsure what this stuff is but it entangles me just as the woman on the shore did

I grab a handful and chuck it away and await its magic re-emergence

I turn to shore and head in the direction of the woman as her coconut essence calls out to me

a warm smile greets me and warm lips as well just as a gentle ocean wind catches us both enveloping us

contentedness without limit, warmth without cold and desire without rejection…

The beach calls us all into her soft sensual arms.

  1. You are brave and you’ve already begun the journey of sharing your pain, your story and your personal life. Your already on your way to writing one heck of a book. You got this.

    • Thank you you’re so kind. I’m trying so hard and it’s taking a lot of bravery for me because this is very personal stuff but I’m putting it all out there and see what happens. It’s like maybe I’ll make some books. I’m hoping to.

  2. I do write tons of passion stories and express a lot of sensuality in my writing, I just haven’t found the confidence to share those yet. I’ve always loved a good story that allows me to escape into a world of fantasy, being able to close my eyes and imagine the things that could be.
