Waving at Amphitrite

Waving at Amphitrite

A Poem by Neville

Waving at Amphitrite

 



Oh Amphitrite


how I long to see you naked


Save the samphire


and the salted monks-beard


gown you last wore


upon your wedding night ..

 



Queen of oceans


daughter of Nereus and Doris ..


While Poseidon awaits thee


and your famed saline embrace ..


In the meantime


drown me and take me first ..

run your tongue gently gainst your top lip, if it tastes of the ocean, maybe we should have a party :)

A little bit of Greek mythology goes a long way. Now from what I can remember Poseidon was not a good husband. In fact he was a cheating barsteward. So in this instance I would suggest Amphitrite may not want to dally around waiting for Poseidon and take advantage of what appears to be a better offer. Salt on the lips. It's a hot day, Everyone's upper lip tastes salty. That could be quite a party.

A lovely bit of mythology for first thing in the morning Neville. Sounds like the ocean's calling.
