Love Vessels

My heart a bay tongue water of brass

Dawn has spat light onto my heart

Your love a moulded cluster of hollow structures

Passion on the masts tackle in cable

Ropes of fibre entangled in affection

With your sleeping sails all coiled up

My heart throbbing, the crashing of waves

Shadows of love a patch on shore

Devotion at anchor to my cardiac floor

Love moored in idleness rocked by breeze

All through day it tickled my heart

When night cascaded on my bay

Your love lamped my heart, with golden rays of day
