Daughter of the Waters
Cerulean goddess
Your beauty shimmers
Chandelier crystals windowpane refracted
All the colors of life
Beneath your surface
Shine fairy wands
Flamboyant, joyful
Phosphorescent
A galaxy of playful stars
Fallen from the sky
To scamper among the fishes
Moon crochets a blanket
Of swells upon the wet
As you inscribe love poems
In the sand.

Such beautiful imagery, Lolamouse. Your words capture well the beauty of the body art.
