Beachcombers Poem by Susan Lacovara

Beachcombers

Rating: 5.0


What was it he saw in her
That pulled him aside
Whispered in his ear
Make her mine

Forty years passed now
holding her hand
Forty decades drifted
Walking the sand

Soft hair still blonde braided
Her legs long and lean
What was it made him think
She is my dream

What was it she witnessed
Back then in their youth
To hitch to his wagon
Thinking, he is my truth

A strong back and soft hands
A laugh to his voice
To render her resolve
He is my choice

Forty years passed now
Holding his hand
Four decades drifted
Walking the sand

What a romantic poem. This is what we all hope for (or at least me) ! Well written and as beautiful as the love conveyed within it.
