Allure.
The sea's breast swells tonight
as her efforts to rise, heightened
by heaving, break surface on skin
and inflated wounds, topped thinly
with spume, burst as ocean labours.
She roars in suppression to gain
the shore finds her effort checked
and overwrought waits expectantly.
Then sweeps out again, tumbling
somersaults over herself grumbling
in sub-marine thunder-loud sounds
as her pebblebed reels with pounding.
Bloated is she yet moving no slower,
bellows ignored, foam tears now flow
down watery rills before rollers make
short work of her face, saltily staining
its normal allure with weedy-green hair.
Yet need hastens impatience for rarely
found oneness, so with naked abandon
she writhes until moment for joint action.
Sea-Swell intends to bare all tonight
in majestic embrace with Spring-tide.

one would be hard pressed, and I aint talkin apples to portray the sea in all its majesty and might any more seductively than you have here ... nor its sinister but compelling undertones and currents...... Nice one Fay..... Neville
Oh I am still all ablush at this generous compliment Nev - this fancy to present nature as portraying seduction often forms verse without my in-put -- does this make me some sorta witch doya think ?
my pleasure... and maybe it does, you can obviously spell....

The immense power of a rough sea meeting a varied coastline is a wonderous sight not easily forgotten. The noise generated is like an anger spoken.
Your words took me right back to my most recent sight of such splendor which was on the south wales coast.
Yes to see the ocean aboil is a sight we never forget - - am so pleased the read raised wondrous memories for you D.A.
Whether crashing against the rocky shoreline or lapping the sandy beaches the sea can show either her mighty rage or her gentle side, but nobody can write about it as eloquently as you.
Oh this is such an encouraging comment and my sincere thanks to you Suresh.
Good write Fay.
My grateful thanks for your visit and read dear Orchi.
Very sensual write tinged with power and beauty, like the sea herself!
What a wonderful write Fay, the sea is so strong and yet it can produce all emotions within itself and within oneself.
