‘Love’, said she
‘sit down by the sea
harken the waves ashore
singing songs of bonds eternal
many universes have we traversed
you and I
many moons have we spent
on distant planets
before we meet
here at the sea shore
in these bodies we wear
so it must be
that you yearn for me
and I for you
the sun,the moon and the stars
have witnessed our sojourns
across the skies
in forms unknown
to our mortal eyes
what could otherwise explain how
what causes you pain
should spring from my heart
what causes me joy
should step forth of yours
listen to the silence of the stars
they speak through their blinking eyes
listen to the sweeping winds
gushing past all life
listen to the murmur of the sands
they hold stories of times untold
listen to the clouds
pregnant of truths unspoken
rest your weary head and heart
at this hearth, by the sea!’
Ps: Of how she spoke!
