A pixie shower of stars
sparkles in the mists that lie over
the blue-green breakers
on the shore where I take a morning
walk. I am reminded of a
bright light in my heart that
fills my memories with
cherished times we spent together.
Soon rays of a new
days sun will glorify the shore
with a rhapsody of
rainbows, a reminder that,
though the steps I take
in these sands may fade,
the vows we treasured are
moored in my heart.
The widespread white
wings on the gulls above shimmer
in the blue morning air
as they wheel about in stately
pavanes. And I think of
those moments of happiness
we were certain would
remain forever and a day.
Yet the timeless tides
portend bright omens of abiding hope
for me. I find comfort
knowing a day will come when
once again, we will be
together laughing and teasing and knowing
a thousand, thousand days
will never, ever keep us apart again.
