Raptures Of The Deep Poem by Hannington Mumo

Raptures Of The Deep

Rating: 5.0


Had I here depths that elsewhere thrive,
Swiftly I'd into your blissful fathoms dive;
And bid old pangs on the loveless shore
Eternal bye as I toe and hair slink below.

Breathlessly I'd raptured sink down till
Heart and mind grow all mute and still;
And yet explore your depths' fairer find
By dainty dints of amorous ions twined.

I'd not satisfied yield to early pleasures
That delude shallower ocean creatures;
Deeper yet would my rapt cruising go,
Farther byeing old pangs of the shore.

If transient blisses be earlier found
In my fishy drifts downward bound,
Savor them I may but further glide
Beyond easy pies Romeos deride.

At last methinks I should espy
Your ocean's bed before I die;
And even if not I must for now
Sink yet for deeper feel below.

I'd not satisfied yield to early pleasures That delude shallower ocean creatures; Deeper yet would my rapt cruising go, A very romantic write! You won't be satisfied with shallow pleasures, but would be happy only if you could plumb the very depths! Powerful presentation!
