A Lover's Prayer

Salty drops of mist

At the edge of the sea

I breathe in the gift of you

Like the setting sun

And the boundless sky

Overwhelming

And through a Smile, affirming

A wish across the globe

For your new day

Laughter, joyous laughter

Until my eyes can bear your absence no more

I close them, dreaming of our time together

We will rejoice again.
