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
