Picture by Josephine Wall

* * * *

As the sun begins to set
Like a jewel in a crown
We stand facing one another
While the sun is sinking down

The seabirds fly above us
Gliding effortlessly in one place
How we marvel at their beauty
Their sheer elegance and grace

Our ship of love sets sail
Beneath a golden edged sky
How tranquil is this setting
As we begin to drift on by

We snuggle up together
As we sit beside the mast
Far out into the sunset
Our hopes and dreams are cast

So much love to be made
Beneath this warming amber glow
And as the stars light up the sky
Like a river love will flow

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Sue, what a painting of bliss.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
