Baptism of Passion

A poem of aquatic passion, with a dash of spirituality thrown in

Swimming~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~Floating
Bathing ~~~~~~~~~
in this love

Caring hands caress
washing burdens clean
touching, memorizing every curve
cool water on hot skin

Floating tangle of
"ohh" "ahhh" "yessss" "more"
buoyed by the waves
lapping insistently in the deep

Recesses wet, gurgling
liquid music as a hymn
sung in throes of passion
at this maritime altar

Hearts adrift in an ocean
only yours and mine
baptized in this love
and re-born to Truth
