decorate with sweetened voice
and humble lovely imagery
all dripping in tangles blue
cast up by a nymph melody
by which they eagerly sailed to express
velvet waters are circled and sway
peacefully upon glowing reefs
merely a very special haven
one continuous shimmering breeds
along the curled rip of harmony
however strange it may feel
across this melodrama sea
(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Juan Carlos Abeti)
