BRIDGING THE OCEAN SKY
8 September 2011

Savouring the wind whispers
from afar
that sang her name,
she read again,
with twinkling eyes,
his name in the beach sand
and watched, as the waves,
in turn, drank his name.
She laughed happily
at the thought that
his name could never
be wiped from her mind
where she surrounded it in
sparkling glass
so that she could view it
from all sides
and listen to the tinkling
as her mind fingers
twanged the glass
just to hear the music
that evoked his presence.

She looked up and smiled
and opening her sensuous lips,
she softly whispered his name
back to him
through the winds
and over the ocean,
where he stood,
amongst the bean rows
like a latter day saint
working the fields
and reading her whispers
in the wind
with his heart
and his mind
and his soul.

Their hearts,
so far from each other,
knew
and blended
and sang
and danced
as one,
and climbed
up to the sky,
and the sky
sighed as it wrote
their bliss
into yesterday’s golden pages.

And what a bridge you have built in this beautiful write:

“She looked up and smiled
and opening her sensuous lips,
she softly whispered his name
back to him
through the winds
and over the ocean,
where he stood,
amongst the bean rows
like a latter day saint
working the fields
and reading her whispers
in the wind
with his heart
and his mind
and his soul.”

Heartfelt sentiment in your “Bridging the Ocean Sky.”

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.
Maranatha!

Wow, very nice...The elements are representing emotions, and the physics of distance...everything is here, passion, love, and desire unrequited...not by choice, but by time and space....an ancient dilemma.
