Wish You Were Here
A fireball flashed and seared the sky
When silhouetted man on boat
With oars sliced the quiet sea
Seagulls swirled around the gilded space
Tracked the swimming silvered flesh
Waves slugged on sands broke into a splash
For some moment I wish you’re here
Together we’ll fall into a trance
Watching Seagulls swirling round and round
That now looks like a dancing shadow
Floating against the vast expanse
The water had already sunk the sun
The sky is now a purple fabric
Yet I am still here lying in the sand, drunk
