Blue Skies, Blue Eyes

A quiet cove with mangroves 
Sitting in beach chairs 
"That sounds wonderful," you say 
But in my dream we both were there
I don't recall that much detail 
Other than to say
Our feet were cooling in the flow
Of lapping waves that day 

The shadows started to lengthen
The sun began to fall
Hand in hand in silence
We watched the curtain call
The last thing I remember 
One single thought comprised
I was thinking as I kissed you,
"She's got the most incredible blue eyes!"
