Bond of the Sea

Was it only yesterday, or long ago when we sailed through a crimson tide? On a mesmerizing misty morn together, just you and I? We tossed and turned through brazen seas 'tween parted clouds of shadow and light our hearts were enthralled, we felt it all our love stronger than the sea current's might. As the tempest of winds and waves abated we drifted beneath a harvest moon listening to slow, steady slaps along the shore reveling in the magic that was gone too soon. Now, in night's solitude, I dream of you I still see your face of rapture and grace though details of that time be forgotten our bond of love will never be erased. Written on 4/10/2018
