Perfect Moments

The sea is washing my feet

as it flows with the incoming tide.

Such a lovely day

now a magical night

Have the stars

ever spangled in the sky

quite as brightly?

If so I never noticed them.

Today he kissed me

I felt the earth move

as he held me.

It was beyond a kiss

more a sign

that I belonged to him.

Perhaps more importantly

that he belonged to me.

.

The salt in the spray

of the waves

Is pure and pungent.

Like our love will be.

A rebirth in the eyes

of whoever made me

a sweet explanation

of why I was born.

Explaining the meaning

of my life

Once so barren

an arid desert

now nearly perfection
