The Temple of the Ocean

The temple of the ocean is far from the path
          that leads to our front door,
but near to the place where you offered
          warm kisses on the curve of my neck.
Our life together is the blessing
          of your reverence.

Love is Our highest word, and the synonym of God. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
