Souls' Bridge Across the Sea

Her heart rings out to meet the church-bells of
 a city by the sea, as she stands on a shoreline
 of Sicily;
singing bells, which patter her pampered heart, pitter-
 patter, fluttering her hybrid soul like a hybrid
 flower, in tones of light-medium pink and blue, peach
 and white.
Hybrid, because her soul is aligned with a handsome Greek
 man who is now living on an eastern coastal town in
 southern Greece.
They made a promise to each other to come to the shore of
 each one's respective town, at noon when the church-bells
 in each town ring, far across the Ionian Sea, deeply blue 
 and beckoning, which seems to sparkle-smile in the sun.
Every day they will do this, as well as continue to write their
 letters to each other, until the day when they will be together
 physically again, walking hand-in-hand, by the sparkling
 white-crested white-foamed blue waves of the
 blue sea, waves which are bouncing, curling, rolling and
 dancing beside them, with the sea-breeze fanning in and
 out of, and fawning in and out of, their hair. ... And their
 love will be a perpetual perennial joyous happy poetry.
