You, Me the Sun and the Sea

YOU, ME, THE SUN AND THE SEA I can envision your smile when mine wasn’t evident I can hear your laughter when mine isn’t prevalent I can imagine your glowing eyes beam while mine were dim And I hear your voice of encouragement when my life grew dim I can be all alone in a forest of Pontiac Pine and Oakland Oak Surrounded by mementos of momentous monuments sculpted by the moments we spent together For instance the day we spent at the arcade on the boardwalk by the sea You and me By the sea The ocean where I walked in the footsteps your petite feet left behind Tiny traces of lightness dwarfed by mine And you giggled when I picked you up so there would only be two footprints in the sand Then I recall you lilted lightly through the tiny waves that lapped onto the shore while you wore blue jeans and a checkered shirt The hems of denim became wet so you rolled them up to your knees As you whispered that I was as delightful as that late summer breeze I remember that day Your smile Your laughter Your entrancing golden and green eyes While we watched the sea ebb and rise We were together on days now long past We shared summer eves and winter days overcast Warm misty nights and days when the sun refused to shine Silvery and sparkling days when you were still mine © 2011.…..~free cee!~ Phreepoetree
