(This was lost during a forum change, so I'm reposting it) Captured Bliss On bluff above the ocean’s curl a place of delicious wedding swirl I watched the tide ebb with the day and soaked in magic from sun rays The bride in white was all a flutter her mother set her gaze in utter awe of scene beneath the knoll where sea such magic display scrolled The breeze so touched the gauze of veil in graceful dance like ocean sails that seabirds swooped to catch the view of strapless gown and sling top shoe This sparkling picture captured bliss in a dance proceeding the wedding kiss and from the sand to look above was to look at just the start of love In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Such poetic description. Could almost feel that ocean air. "just the start of Love" one of life's sweeter moments. Beautiful poetry. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Martie, Pleasant surroundings well described for the making of a memory. Just lovely. Were those gulls invited? Liz |

Denise- I'm soooo glad you enjoyed it a second time. Danny--It was a beautiful time Liz--the seagulls were there first, we were the uninvited.  |
