Standing on the the ridge.
Staring out to sea.
Knowing at last that you love me.

Love lasts a long time.
Life time unsure.
A short time may be all we have left.
Mere seconds from all eternity.
Eternally yours.

You know I am indeed.
Knowing is not ours to say.
Such knowledge belongs to no man.

Stood on the cliff tops.
Thinking about two lonely souls.
Rafts riding the tide, unsafe.
Shoreline's too rocky, our love may be dashed.
The tide and time are ours alone.
may waves roll onwards over the rocks.
Rock pools, full up with memories, memories overflowing.
It's winter now.
The ice cream vendors left.
The croissants became porridge and bagels.
The straw hats and tee-shirts became jerseys and raincoats.
Umbrellas and friendly fellas.
None as wonderful as you.
