The Azure sea with crests of white
Reflects the bright blue sky
Idle winds chase the wisps of cloud
And unfurl our sails gently
***
Dorsal fins break the water
As dolphins wheel and play
Diving through our bow waves
As we get underway
***
In our wake, the birds follow
The Terns & Gulls and more
Here a moment and then gone
Below surf in but a blink of an eye
***
We lay on the deck in our bathing suits
Our skin warmed and tanned
Condensation rolling seductively
Down ice-cold beers in happy hands
***
Gazing at the horizon
At the dot that once was land
holding hands, taking in life’s wonders
My love and I
***
Of Sea and air, life flowing free
We feel included
On the deck of our little boat
In life’s rich tapestry
***
This is what dreams are made of
The serenity of this moment
A snapshot of the best this world has to offer
The tableau laid out before us
The Sea and I

The Voyeur's Incandescent Reasoning
The woman sat nonplussed, in the Waiting Room. In a sort of daze, looking straight ahead patiently. She had already had three small breakfast's that morning and a nip of sherry, this was not unusual she would typically wait until an hour after she took her anti-depressant and was her morning routine. She was merely following instructions she assured herself, shifted slightly in her seat and feeling a little heart burn thought, maybe she should skip lunch. Dom had said to have the task done this week. She was well used to his methods and desired to get this over and done with soon. She glanced at her watch, smiled weakly at the Receptionist who was there for a moment and then gone.
