You

You
Tangled up in
Me
Tangled around
You
Your hair set fire-gold in sunlight
With golden glow also in your eyes
Greener than
The surf pulsing at cliff-base
Like a god's soft heartbeat
Or a breath ruffling the thistles.
And then untangled, but still warm
As I waded the frigid waters
And the waves
Twined seaweed love-knots about my ankles
Gold and green
And purple-red.
