Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

Solitude By the Reverie

Sitting by the beach the lights of yesterday grow dim 
while the calming waves of terranas caress my reverie,  
the hotting sands bequeath their perfect light;   
A lull in time, a moment of grace   
and soon I apprehend it all with none; 

Nature's casting light    
and the deedle doddle of my skin 
beneath the burning sun; 
   
Palm trees breathe and I could swear 
this day was made for me..  

Right here on this beach the world falls away 
and I'm too far to inch recall the boister of my kind 
Befitted for the sea I long for no one else but him
 
Tonight,
they'll be a little wine? a yellow dress? 
a dance mayhap?  Romance?...
