It’s amazing
What a bit of sun
Can do,
Hatches open,
Smiles break
On emerging faces,
The odd cat
Jumps out on deck,
Stretches, rolls in
The warm rays,
Seagulls cry
A dryer note
And everyone waits,
Waits,
Waits for the wind.

I remember
Falling in love with you
As if the time
Was moments ago,
The first time
I saw you,
The first time
Our eyes met,
Some say it cannot
Happen that way,
But it did,
And I still feel
The urge to slip
Into the softness
Of sheets and pillows
With you.

He was never
Under
Any illusions,
Yet he never
Forgot
How to dream,
He somehow sensed
That one creates
One’s surroundings
And he was always
Surrounded
By soft beauty,
Sparkling energy,
And a calmness
That seemed
To burst forth
From his seams.

In the morning
Without warning
They’d be up
And they’d be gone,
Young loves like
Seagulls changing
Perching posts,
But then it was
The early sixties
With old morals
And ideas exploding
Into freedom,
There was always
Something going on.

The photographer
Aims the lens,
The poet
Grabs the pens,
And when
The magic happens
Illusion becomes reality,
Or is it
Reality becomes illusion,
Oh the beauty
Of the fusion
Of art.

When I notice
You looking,
Looking at me,
I often wonder
What do you see,
When you’re away
In your cerebral
Loft,
I often wonder,
What holds your
Thoughts.

I followed the moon
To the end of the sun
And when I got there
I started to run,
Until I realized
It’s never over
It’s never done,
So I slowed back down
To a leisurely stroll,
When it’s forever
Why the rush,
Hold your lover
And hush, hush, hush.
