Water and Sky


You are my azure sky- 
     and I, your silver sea.
          We merge at our horizon 
               in dawn's pale saffron light.
Late afternoon, 
     my violet waves shimmer
               beneath your crimson sky.
And at Eventide, 
     your bright coral glow 
          warms my deep emerald sea.

In the dark of night, 
     your strong, deep jet hues
          meet my quivering magnolia waves,
stirred by the bright moonbeams 
     that reflect and dance 
               with their song of love.
At last, my sea 
     gently ripples at the horizon's line,
          cradled by your embracing sky,
as I drift into sweet carnation dreams-

until the dawning sun 
          once again wakes our horizon 
               to a majestic and brand-new day.

You are my azure sky-
     and I, your silver sea.
