On the Shores of Creation

We would meet on the shores of creation and walk among the grasses

Embracing the beginning of wondering, while knowing of the fall

From the corners of our being we could see the very key

That fits in the places where alone comes to call

We could hear the brimming hearts drifting full of wishes and secrets

Perhaps holding treasures on winds which spun with courage

Knowing something was amiss where the sky met grace

As they asked, is this love, our eyes find so curious

Rain signs its name on our tender hands, setting fire with its touch

As a distant star sings out that there is fire in healing waters

A thousand thoughts become the body of our stories

Wherein all darkness finds the light that matters

Between seasons, moments held hands with what is and can be

And I believe that perfection sent messages to you and me 

When we met on creation’s shore to walk in grasses

We were held in the arms of our own destiny

We would meet on the shores of creation
holding hands beneath the stars
in a moment we grasped deep elation
for that moment my love...it was ours
