Amber in the water, the lights that play in dark
And the moon's wake, rushing to kiss our toes
Once
Eyes adjust as Time keeps the rhythm of the waves
Shadows appear
To play amongst the frothing water
Stars light and bowed necks straighten
To gaze
Words are spoken in the lighted dark
And looks cast
Like stones
Skipping across the deep
Of another's eyes
Inquiries are made
Soft requests of a promising spirit
Whose mere being is a balm to
The soul
Waves thunder
The waters boil and roar
In lines like troops rushing
To pile haphazardly against the walls of sand
At our feet
I speak
The water,
Now at its greatest extension,
Striving to touch
Looks like
Lace
Shoulders,
Once burdened down with a weight
Heavier than that water,
Are now bare enough
To recieve a kiss
In the moonlight
We still throw shadows
'Neath our feet
The sand still moves
Our breath still disturbs the air around us
But in that reservoir of nature
The waves still crash
And turn to lace
And go no further.

Baking in the sunlight, freezing 'neath the moon
Sitting round the shoreline and then waking all too soon
This is called vacation, this the bliss named rest
And frankly given choice I think it's this that I like best:
Being a beloved, living under Grace
Hoping with a steady heart that I can keep the pace.
The gifts He gives are grandest,the life He lends is best
So for no other reason does my heart beat in my chest
For only He can phase me, only He can give
The powerful fates that force the traits with which I daily live
Praise to God almighty, Praise to God above!
Who cares for me when I don't care, and always sends His love.
