Why do you
Haunt me beauty

Invisibly
Without warning
You so wend
Your way
Into a mood
And leave me
With no alternative
Except to be in love

Oh I have tried
To be wise
As well I should
Keeping sheltered
In my solitudes
Yet always it seems
To no avail

Across the sky
Above the sea
The summer clouds
Claim you another victory

Sunlight gleaming
On snowy sails

Smiling at this, how you've been captured.

Another victory for beauty. How bad can losing be?

"Keeping sheltered

or

"Sunlight gleaming
On snowy sails"

Loving thoughts smiles so
beautifully!
