Across the centuries into eternity |

* Across the centuries into eternity * The shore stretches just for us in solitude. With their wide open eyes the sun and the sky follow our every move. The waves play lazily. They dare to lick our feet and to swallow our laughter. You run ahead of me, a true whirlwind of freedom. I choose to step into your footprints, just an instant before the water does the same, filling our double trace with its teasing froth. Suddenly the water is quicker than me and you gain in distance. I then quietly sit in the sand allowing you to be the conductor of the game of life and harmony. The sun and you. The sky and you. The sea and you. The shore and you. The world and you. Your dance of freedom and me, the voice of love within your heart, whispering silently. The water carries without cease the echoes of our song resonating along this shore and over the sea’s vast expansion, infusing new life into our one soul, across the centuries into eternity. * |

hi Margherita, you desribe a thing that I know well; following the steps in the sand; I can feel the sea in your precious poem and the burst of waves...I can feel the emotion of the loving people when harmony and majestic sea share thses feelings...Your poem is quite a success. regards yann |

The allure of the sea is irresistible, as are the lines of this magnificent poem! I am drawn, as surely as if by the undulating tides, unto all things eternal. Beautiful! art |

A beautiful poem Margherita. The sea is like love itself. Both serene and playful, benevolent and wrathful, endless and fathomless. Do we play upon the water's edge, or dare we take the plunge? Never sigh for a better world, it's already composed, played and told. |

The sun and you. The sky and you. The sea and you. The shore and you. The world and you. Your dance of freedom and me, the voice of love within your heart, whispering silently. . . . . . Beautiful romantic setting for the body of water and the whole piece was a pleasure to read. Eric |

'Twas a beautiful scene you described there! I really enjoyed the poem. That really made my day when I almost decided to abhor poetry. |

Yo dear Margherita, Let's hope it lasts a very long time. I wouldn't bet on eternity though. Our world is always changing, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. Remember, we used to be one big land mass, so many years ago. Love Bobby |
