Sea is wild tonight
all lustful waves &
peacock tails of

sound & light.

Moon pokes out to say
her piece she’s full &
fertile like the earth

yet scuds across the war
filled sky anchored here
to you & I.

Yes sea is wild,
winds tears my hair
pulls at my clothes

harbour lights blink
ill at ease as storm
clouds promise to release

the wrath of primal Gods.

Sea is wild yet
you & I lie cocooned
by warmth and need

here now at peace.

The eye of night
has passed us by
we leave the fight

to sea and sky;
together sleep
& dream of sea.
