I Am My Own Utopia

seas rock my soul

     inflate my empty spaces

     billow with dreams

     kites of saffron emotions

     wind ruffling blushed beaches

bleached walls of sand

     wrap arms around foamy cusps

     slipping between sheets of water

     purity of cleansing mist

     whispered secrets released

love notes scrawled in grains before us

     flirting seagulls soar above

     poured light of amethyst beams

     sunshine swims in sprinkled rays

     sunlight drips mustard on my toes

flowing water of overlapped waves

     jaunty fish silhouettes

     fragrant wisps of clinging seaweed

     truth cradling purity of tints

     embraced by daylight eyes

utopia a mirage just one step ahead

     serenity of secret promises

     saline breezes ruffling senses

     I take a deep breath of aqua

     knowing I am my own utopia.
