A WHISPER OF TIME

A WHISPER OF TIME

A Poem by Barbara Lynne
"

together for only a moment

"
A Whisper Of Time

I watch the sails
As they come into view
My heart pounds rapidly
As my eyes rest upon you

As you leave your ship
With you heart in your hand
I watch as your steps
Kick up glistening sand

As the edges of you lips
Form that familiar grin
A calm overtakes me
And gives peace from within

I melt as your fingers
Gently outline my face
I fall in your arms
For a a long awaited embrace

It seems like eternity
Since I last felt your touch
How can one's spirit
Ache for anoher so much

And once again we press on
Holding tight to each others hands
Forgetting all cares and worries
And the world's smothering demands

For a whisper of time
We become one
And the night melts away
As we anticipate the sun

Then once again
You must master the sea
And leave at the shore
A part of you with me

Until the day those sails
Once again come in view
My love, soul and spirit
Wait longingly for you
