On a quiet and lonely stretch of beach, under the bright moon,we walk hand in hand. Like thunder, the waves crash upon the shore, threatening to engulf us, the rising tide. Totally isolated, we find just the spot, we spread a blanket upon which to sit. Our arms around each other, we gaze toward the sea, searching for the horizon, the first light of day. The rhythmic sound of the waves, in their endless search for the shore, almost lulls us to sleep, tranquilizing, almost hypnotizing, that sound. A chill rises in the soft ocean breeze, seeking warmth we huddle under a blanket. Ever searching, for the birth, of a new day. Suddenly, a thread of light appears on the horizon. Away from the rising tide, we must move, looking still at the light, it grows brighter. We rejoice in a new day, for the sun we must now wait. From behind the ocean, the sun appears, the light, in our eyes, shines brightly. Still not enough heat to warm the sand, we rise and walk home, once again hand in hand. |
