Mangata

Reflection, a road leading to the moon.
The night rippled, waves crashing; 
Ambiance so serene, nothing disturbed;
A mirror. A pure beauty, flawless stars
upon water spoke ever so honeyed to
the night. A calming of the storm. 

Smell of salt, a cleansing of the air; 
purifying ocean. Footprints tracked 
the shoreline; disappearing but unforgotten.
The consciousness of love. I saw her at the
end of that road, her smile in the sky; a
crescent moon. I dove in unaware; sinking.

Anchored in love, drifting passion.

What an amazing thought Michael. I encourage you to read some of Edmund Spencer. He portrays love as a hunt and prey event-the deer in the woods and the hunter metaphor. Keep up the good work because Mangata is simply amazing!
