suckled into gentle sleep softness finessed understood waves lap cares drift seaweed untangles lets us be each grain of sand fits together creating dunes that follow curves nestled in sub-aquatic embrace heartbeats effortlessly in sync ~ sirens sound asleep ~ undisturbed in undulating waters oblivious to shipwrecks or sailors songs sung and days work done

I also thought the electric eels fascinating, thousands of electrolytes which store power, yours here Dilly is one that glows see its outline and camouflage. As a long-distance walker my goal the ocean, so healing, a 6hr walk across the canyon! love sea poems "nestled in sub-aquatic embrace" isn't she lovely. love the gentle sway of the waters embrace!

Ahh I'm just heading into the gym without a water bottle or an electrolyte to my name - eek! I wasn't sure how to bring the eel in on this one, I felt perhaps he was forgotten with the shipwrecks and sailors haha. Your walks sound lovely! Thank you for your lovely comment x

Ah first of all, as a mermaid, lol (me) I absolutely love this! How creative is your wordplay! And the alliterations when read out loud, they sound so captivating! A very soulful read, and your poem is how i feel, whenever I snorkel and swim! I just had a long day swimming , and yes oblivious to shipwrecks and sailors, nestled in sun aquatic embrace! This poem somewhow resonates with me! Sometimes what we need is just a dip in the sea! Float away untangling seaweed, (they lovr my hair lol pleasure visiting your page tonight! Sending you light always! And this is a fave

Aha! so this is what Sirens get up to during the night, reshaping the ocean floor amongst other things, how beautiful and serene you make it all sound, I’m pretty sure there will be plenty of shipwrecks and drowning sailors to go around come the morning, A superb interpretative piece, cheers David
