Enchanted by the Sea

Author's Comments

My original version of a poem about Michiru. I felt it needed a better ending and came up with two other versions. I will post them as well since I'm not sure which version I like best. By the way, yes I'm aware that the Marine Cathedral is the name of her stradivarius so you don't even have to bother to mention that if you planned on doing so.

Hidden in the depths of Neptune's waters,
Within the mysterious Marine Cathedral,
Silently a graceful beauty awaits.
A sorceress of many talents,
The goddess of the sea.

Waves flow within her hair,
Which washes my breath away,
Like the tide does the sand.
A lovely vision of perfection,
Mirrored by the sea.

A voice as soft as the salty sea air beckons me.
As I stand there frozen by the waters touch,
Drowning in the deep blue pools of her eyes,
Pearls of laughter, gently caress me,
Like ripples upon the sea.

Using her violin she interprets the sea.
Brought to life with the touch of her hand,
The instrument plays a haunting melody.
Composing a wondrous dream within my head,
An elegant sea rhapsody.

Through her brush the water's spirit is set free.
Paint swims across the canvas in a exquisite way,
Colors taking on the shape of an aquatic paradise.
Submerging me deep beneath the water's surface,
A portrait of the sea.
