She longs for marine layer sprinkle, spray of sunshine azure seed of sea, sacred alchemy berry bloom moisture on salt-hungry mouth; for thirsty stem to stand on strand, and harvest hope.

Prompted by Shawna’s Monday Melting over at Rosemary Mint. To see the words and play along (and scroll to read some of her AWESOME poetry), click here:

You’re sweet. 🙂
This is beautiful. 🙂 My favorite is “berry bloom moisture.”
My mouth liked the way that one came together, too. Great words, thank you! 🙂
Thanks. I’m so glad you liked them. Except for “chemical” of course. 🙂
sprinkle, spray of sunshine
azure seed of sea,
sacred alchemy
I SO love this!!! Beautiful wording, De!
Thanks, Hannah. “Chemicals” was one of Shawna’s original melting words, but it didn’t play well with others, so I chose alchemy. Makes me happy that you think it works. 🙂
I’ve been loving the word alchemy as of late! Works very well!
Hannah, you have to start playing with us each week. I usually post the words sometime on Sunday. You have all week to post a poem, but the earlier the better of course.
I’d love that, Shawna, thank you for the invite, I’ll link up! 🙂
I love the picture, as I read I felt like was sitting on the side sipping a drink and watching everything. good write, indeed

Thank you, Leah. I popped over and read yours, too, and liked it very much. Tried to leave a comment, but your feed won’t accept either of my email addresses. Your poem made me think of nurturing my kids, which was a nice twist. 🙂
I had the same response. 🙂 And I had no problem leaving a comment. It’s so frustrating when you have something to say and can’t say it.
My email is the only domain of its kind (de@wordplaybyde.com), but usually my gmail works. This time, notsomuch.
I am always amazed that you can get so many of the words into such a concise piece, AND have it work so well.
Awww, thanks Mark. 🙂
I like it. 🙂 Did you try those words from last week. 0_0 They were scary.
Beautiful! This made me want to go to the beach! Nice job!
