Tangerine Sunfish

Light eastern clouds of billow

Blowing my troubles away

 

 

As I float off on

My tangerine sunfish

In a sparkling amber sea

Of warm sake

 

 

Strings of a lonely

Mandolin serenade me

As I slowly drift away

Into my last setting sun

On the west horizon

 

 

Setting sail

To explore my

Mandarin dreams

And geisha wishes

In peace

 

Hoping to set

My soul free

In a light aqua green

Sea foam halo

 

Reviews

[Poetic Beauty]

The imagery is very well painted; allowing me to picture it in my minds.

Very good

Awe yes a very dreamesque quality to the poem... I could close my eyes and drift off into a virtual vacation.

Oh those marmalade skies, ok so it was tangerine, so colourful the dreams you weave on sail boats gliding on a burgundy sea. love it Marie

[hannajade]

so peacefull, so happy.... when you were talking about sailing it reminded me of the quote 'I can't change the direction of the wind, but can always adjust my sails'

Nice dreamy escapism
