Happiness in Paradise

there was a sweetness to the madness

as I sit here and think

lavender roses overflowing along the bathroom sink

as we made our way

dancing across the Pacific

under a full moon in springtime surrender

and all we could do was smile

we watched as our feet

slipped into the softness below

along side other parts.

splashing, we laughed and cared not

about the crowd that was

eyes that were

moments in time

I thought they would last forever

who knew, we couldn't catch tomorrow

your touch,

spectacular.

your voice,

beyond description.

seared in my soul,

forever

I will always remember...

I'm smiling. Glad to read the happiness of a friend.
These moments are paradise. We are designed to live bliss filled and connected. We are tuned to be in harmony with the souls around us... How much blessings are found when we glimpse our potential to be.
Lovely!

Great opening with 'sweetness to the madness'. It sets the tone. And you bring it home with 'your touch spectacular'.

It has a touch of the exotic in 'dancing across the Pacific'. I love to travel so this touches a soft spot.

Thank you again, Philip....

I will be by soon.

This is gorgeous Alisa. Only the super-pragmatic among us would be capable of taking stock in the middle of such bliss. But to do so would be to lose the moment to analysis and fear and worry.
Stolen moments in this life are gems of ours to be looked upon as they accrue in value as time goes on.
Paradise is as fleeting these days as it was for the first man and woman who thought it was forever.
Very moving poetry my friend. :)

Hello serah,

Thank you for your commments. He did inspire some of the most beautiful emotions I think I have ever experienced and I pray this piece does our memory justice.

Wishing you well.

The world seemed to stop... each time he appeared...everything faded away, except him and me.. it was the most magical time, ever...
