I want to live inside the glorious
memories of our adventurous lives,
the ocean blue poetry breezing up
against our bronze skin, midnight
waves over the star-studded moon,
shimmering stars rising in brilliant
shapes.  I want to reach out and sink
inside the pleasurable times, the
midday walks across the pond
staring at the scintillating seagulls,
gleaming bright wings draped in
perfection, to marvel at such
astonishing attractions, a masterpiece
of light and thought.  And as we
travel around the world, azure
eyes full of surprise and emotion,
a flowering frame, soft flesh
above romance, I’ll never let go
of your love.
