Thunderous Sky

As the waves thrash the rocks
Under misty, sullen sky
You sit upon the sandy rim
And search your answers why

The wind, it tousles your blonde locks
With such relentless pleasure
Your face is raw with windswept fury
This moment, you do treasure

Look now slowly to your right
Who is it standing there?
Looking calmly at the sea
Of all, she’s unaware

Her long red mane dances with glee
Arms crossed, brow pursed in thought
She stands now, in stoic form
Amongst enclave of rock

Her cape of tweed, tossed with wind
The sound, like flapping wings
Eyes fixed upon spellbinding flow
Absorbing all it brings

She shifts gaze slowly to the left
And finds you perched on sand
Her eyes light up at your fair face
She beckons you by hand

A smile then does grace her face
It’s you she came to see
You’ve not yet met, yet know her still
Her trek has been to thee

Rise slowly from your hollowed seat
Shake every grain to ground
You wonder if it’s you she calls
Yet no one else around

From nowhere, does the thunder rise
The tempest rears it’s head
Elysian drops sprinkle your face
Anoint the paths you’ll tread

Look up now, as she glides near
Toward you does she come
A rose in hand, so deeply red
The sky above still hums

As she nears, you too approach
You look into her eyes
All forty shades of green live there
Yours gleam like sapphire skies

At last she’s here, the journey made
You reach to take her hand
She slowly fades, withers from sight
Dissolves into the sand

O Sweet Bliss! You dare be cruel!
To cause the fallen tear!
Yet, comfort love, to you it says
For yes, your love was here

She came to you, to touch your soul
Remind by thunder stern
She awaits in far off place
And dreams of your return

To hold and kiss and love you pure
Is what she sees in store
And when together one day soon
Tears cease forevermore.
