soothe me with
your cool, refreshing embrace
soak my skin
with your watery relief
that cleanses my soul so deeply.
drizzle your way softly
into my heart
whisper with my hair
touch my lips
shower me with kisses
drop them on
my face,
my eyes,
my hands.
drench my clothing
with the memories you bring
and carry with you
the salty scent of the ocean
that I so adore, and miss terribly.
nature's spirits-
my friends
my lovers
my family
wrap themselves around me
and fill the empty ache
inside.
