By the Shore

Waves beating the rocks

                       The freezing fog

                                         Lifts to show

                                                          Endlessness

                                                                        In arctic blue grays

                                                                                   ==== And I think of you ===

                                                               Despite the desolate coasts of

                                                        
                                                    Winters past

                                  Can't you see

                        The green

Beneath the snow?


                          === As I do ===


                                                          The seagulls have fallen silent,
                                                           But storms come to pass.
                                                           And upon the return of the swallows
                                                           May will see you with a crown
                                                           Of flowers in your hair.

                                                                         ===Can we wait by the shore?===
