Time

Time couldn't contain you, my ocean! Not a wrinkle on your sapphire body, shimmering in the moonlight encased in your flamboyant phosphorescence... like on the edge of a dream you carried us down home, to our south pacific friends, past life recollection of yesterdays where time is a fruitless endeavor and their white teeth gleam like moonstones, brown faces a mirage of southern hemisphere smiles. Just a ghost of a moment in a timeless set of motions, that eternal nightcap of ecstatic pilgrims, til the curfew tolled and the ocean companion, waited with patience through its silken facelift and took us back to America
