THAT WOULD BE THE DAY

And I'll call off my flight
to touch you.
I miss the feeling
of your soft skin,
that voice that soothes
my mind.

I want to catch one more glimpse
of you
before you leave me tonight.

So let's hold hands
one more time
in the grassy field
in our bare feet,
below the thick mist
under the warmth of the
rising sun.

Let's have our picnic together
inside the heart that you
carved with your finger
in the sand.

Let's play around in the ocean,
splash each other's faces
playfully,
in our bathing suits.

Let's lie down on a hill
side-by-side,
with our hair in the grass,
and stare at the clouds,
which love to create shapes
to gawk at,
for us.

Let's dance in the rain
as it soaks your hair,
under the darkening clouds
until lightening strikes,
and the thunder scares us off.

When the storming has stopped,
let's go outside,
take a stroll in the park,
stop for a minute and rest
on a bench
lighted by a lamp post,
and smile at each other
while scanning each other's eyes.

God you're so cute right now.
You take my breath away,
literally.

I'll walk you home
to your doorstep,
give you a bear hug,
and kiss you goodnight,
softly,
on your lips.

Where are you?
I'm searching,
pacing the airport.
Look at me.
I must be a wreck
right now.

Where'd you go?
Did you not stay?
Did you leave without
waiting
for me?

Apparently, the imagery of this
snuck out to a few of us, and
is one of the better phrases
in all of your wonderful poem.

I think this belongs on top for another view by our poets
