Within Her Arms

It was a day I spent within her arms Totally smothered by her love and charms The world seemed new and young - as young as we. And we found love as only love can be. We shared the beach with salt and gull and dune, I remember that cloudless day in June We made a pledge that day down by the wave To always love and cherish what God gave And then our world slowly began to turn That fire once so hot does no longer burn I still recall that space within her arms - I smile softly, the memory still warms October 11, 2016
