Closest to paradise I could have
so simple
tasting freedom with every sunset
One specific walk
just for this
because a beautiful soul asked
a long way around the bay
along where
only the ocean had left her footprints
listening carefully,
I heard of whales and sharks and turtles
strange plants in sea blue emerald
creatures unseen in deep mysteries,
starfish stories
Wedding Hill
my destination
romance with sand
shimmering white in the distance
like a promise
one yellow
so bright
my eyes shone
tracks of others
come before me
where
hope shoots out
from salty seaweed
and tracks form in sand
to guide human fellows
destination gets closer
painting aqua under sunglasses
shadows turn, some twist,
but you
always look ahead
Wedding Hill so close
back the way I've come
soon to be erased
future looming in front
skies all blue
to go up
is the thing to do
virgin territory
dazzzling white
all reduced
to bright
wedding from top
vista clear
sun shimmering
on deep ocean
true blue
it's not only shadows that twist and turn
as life begins again
on the long walk home
sunsetting in
closest to paradise
so simple
over and over again.
