Paula Goldsmith Poet Monchielle Stanza

The Waters Edge

Stand at the waters edge 
it's you I long to see, 
over an ocean blue. 
Walk the sand to find peace, 
as I wait to see you. 



Stand at the waters edge 
watching the morning sun, 
you have been in motion. 
I miss our fun all day, 
in the cool wet ocean. 



Stand at the waters edge 
remembering you left, 
watching the birds go by. 
Oh my heart was left here, 
I just wanted to die. 



Stand at the waters edge 
come home very quickly, 
I will pray on one knee. 
Our time is standing still, 
you still belong to me.
