Analysis of Beach house blue jean baby



Empty coral sheets…
 Still warms me fonder
Aromatic her absence…
The essence lingers longer and longer
My beach house blue jean baby
 Always wakes before the dawn
Eccentric ocean breeze whispers…
 Levi jeans spilled swill amidst the lawn
Her silhouette through the sea grass
 Backdrops of halos beginning to yawn
Sea gulls dancing and singing about her ebony statue
Waves crashing their songs
As I near her the naked disappears…
 Into sunflower print sundresses
 A topped a tangled spun pure
My beach house baby barefoot
 Toes curled up into the sand
I hide among the dunes and gaze…
 Upon her camber and the splendor of her stand
She is my goddess, every inch the lady
 From her head deep down unto her soul
A chill of my spine as she catches my eye and offers a hand
 Two lone figures the shore line we stroll
My beach house blue jean baby
And her deep baby blues
Captivates my senses along with my heart
As the distance and the noons…just swallows us up

Nighttiger

A fortyish native born all American man. Married twice and for the last time. I have four children; Three daughters and one son that are all over the age of eighteen. I also have two grandchildren; one three years old and one nine months old. Inspired by God, tragedy, life's experiences and then a fairy tale love. I never intentionally set out to write poetry, but "She" inspired me. "She" meaning the love of my life. That love is a passion that after thirteen years still grows stronger each and every day. It eventually had to be put into writing. As I wrote poetry to her, she encouraged me to approach other subjects. Doing so brought me to discover that poetry could wash away the bitter tastes of life (suicide, cancer, and divorce) that were still living like demons inside me. So when poetic therapy brought those impish fiends to a stalemate, I began to experiment more. Creating fictional characters and situations within my works. The support of this online community has inspired me even further to continue to hone my writing skills giving the readers the best that I can offer. Thanks to all you out there in Lulu land. more…
