I stand at the edge of the ocean with the castle lit up in the far distance
My dress and cloak drenching wet from the sea and mist in the air
Yet I do not feel the cold
For thoughts of my Love keep me warm
The crashing of the waves like the beating of my heart calming to those who ponder
The rhythm
When shall we be able to meet again
When can I feel his touch his stare
The beauty of the full moon mesmerizes me
Bringing the music of the flute to my heart and soul
Letting me know it has heard my inner song
Time now for me to go
As I bow my head to the sky saying Thank you and Good bye

Connie - as if you didn't know, lol, you are a POET AND A STORYTELLER PAR EXCELLENCE!!! You held me enthralled throughout. (Diana is making a mental note never to miss reading every Zinsser poem she comes across!)

Forgot to say and coming back in to do so: The title is as superb as the poem, and so fitting!

Enjoyed your poem, Zinsser,
and especially love these lines:

"Yet I do not feel the cold
For thoughts of my Love keep me warm"

Very true!
