Patience and the Sea

The sun blares so hot, still Patience awaits,
savoring what has yet to come.

You beckon over the brillance
of her majesty's garrish departure,
whispering of ancient treasures,
secrets swallowed, kept in the paunch
of a nomad whale, as dolphins linger
near a pier where noses turn red
and mastered hands cast their line.

An advent of ancient incarnation
will stir into moonlit trickles,
softly spuming to cover her face in
a salty mask comprised of your essence.

At that time Patience will whisper,
"Shush, I don't think that they know it."
her heart keeping some invisible truth.
