She-Fever.
From liquid glass to boiling foam
moody sea can gentle be
or scream out her commands.
With restless need for exclusivity
she drowns attempts to flee her reprimands.
Savage mistress she.
Skirting coastlines Neptune's wife
in veils of weathered tease
likes smitten sailors to beguile
Her fickle heart knows age-old tricks
performed with use of fury's hidden smiles.
Savage actress she.
Watch how in hurry she unchains
waves of terrifying charge
that quickly rise in flurry's shock.
Water on fancy's whim can wake
fear yet when still her waltz feels hypnotic.
Savage dancer she.
Sea-fever has a strangle-hold
on men who should know
naught holds greater addiction.
A life-long love of sea remains
unyielding and alluring as a mermaid's kiss.
Savage sweetheart she.
Oh go aboard you coastal child
but beware precocious signs,
to siren's whispers never listen.
Know should you ever disdain the hold
she cleaves her salty-cell will you imprison.
Savage jailer she.

Oh my dear Brian - - cruises are I believe so arranged to be safe and sound from any precocious behaviour - - hoping you enjoy every moment of the chance to see more of this mistress they call The Sea.
Very good write Fay.
This truly evokes the sights and sounds of the sea - a superb write Fay.
Thank you Michael - she deserves a bit of extra exposure this changeable mistress the Sea.
Fay, you describe so beautifully that big ocean I am all surrounded by. We have a saying here: Never turn your back to the ocean!
Your writing is very lyrical Faye I'm enjoying your poems
