We Will Be Together Poem by Kevin East

In orange and lemon dreams
On sun drenched beaches
With melting ice creams,
Wearing our silly hats.
Skimming pebbles
We leap
Like acrobats.
Two rebels
Basking in horizon deep
Of aqua blue.

Now our hearts melt too.
Sea sprayed in embrace
That sweet angelic face.
To share a salty kiss
As the moon gatecrashed our bliss.
And a crimson sun
Sank into the sea
As it cooled.
Your jewelled eyes

Spoke to me
That silent promise
Of love.
I had to look above
To savour
The spangled canopy.
That open air theatre
Where we will always be
Together.
Free.
