A goddess stands in search of love Gentle breezes caressing golden hair. Toes daintily tickled by lapping waves. Searching for a lover’s call from afar. Across the distance of the waves a young man stares toward a distant shore. Breezes flowing through the soul He waits for a most joyful and sensual sight. Minds becoming one, calling over the seas Waiting for the response of a distant lover. Calling anxiously, listening for a word. Both stand at ocean’s edge, toes tickled by salty hands. A gentle sigh as each waits for the words of love. Two hearts waiting for an answered call. Thinking of only the other as each waits. Yearning for the touch of a gentle embrace. I.....a single word heard by two minds, anxious. Only....hearts pound as the next is anticipated. Love....sighs audibly heard as hearts pound. You....A smile, a tear escapes, standing still. Distant loves depart the sea, satisfied for now. Anxiously awaiting the next sun’s set. A treasured moon passing through cotton skies. Two shadows fade into a cool night. Love awaits the falling of a golden sun. |

I.....a single word heard by two minds, anxious. Only....hearts pound as the next is anticipated. Love....sighs audibly heard as hearts pound. You....A smile, a tear escapes, standing still. Would this not make the most beautiful sentiment in a card!!!!! The whole poem was moving but this verse just pulls you in. I want them to find each other.... Sincerely, Regina |
