"The Sea and You"
The mist rolls in from the sea
covering the bay with a soft blanket
lit with a strange luminosity
by the moon, hanging in the night sky
All these things conspire in my mind
and bring forth the image of your face
a beautiful thing, far outshining
the lovely sights of the night
The sound of the waves, lapping on the pier
fish leaping out on the dark sea
and just the thought of you
wipes all these things from my consciousness
The moon, the waves, the visions and sounds
of the nighttime shore, swept away in an instant
Replaced by the thing I most want
by the simple fact, of your being
Of you
