A new beginning…
her sashay graced the catwalk
snatched his thought,
suspending his breath
on a climatic ledge
…
gripped his stone-flint heart
and struck a SPARK!
the river-walk in Augusta
arms en-wrapping arm
skin caressing skin
sun-warmed hearts coddling
prom dates whisper in spring
soft kisses dripping promises
of life-long tomorrows
filled with never-ending,
early-morning pillow talk
and private sabbatical reasonings
interpreting Love and contemplating Life…
love of a lifetime
learning through life, time
growing, graying
soul intertwining soul
…
but
tomorrow
never
came
and the promise
and the promise
comforted only the fools
Jah knows, their yesterdays crept in the way…
