OCEANS BEYOND... (My new poem inspired by Victoria Obolensky's painting...)

 Oceans Beyond…

(Inspired by Victoria Obolensky’s painting…)



Lush shallows appear to curl across sand, soothing

And caressing, luring and gently smoothing

Itself across a dry beach, chased by crisp, comely 

Waves of a rich turquoise hue, rushing and lively,

Beneath the promise of oceans beyond a sensuous sky…


Wispy white clouds hustle and shuffle into roseate

Against sumptuous blue, a palette to create

Above darker lurid depths, blending into dull mauve.

And the gaze across the horizon begins to rove,

Which hints at hidden oceans beyond an unctuous sky…
