LIGHT HOUSE (for David & Kathy Toth - May 3, 2013)


The light house lights the darkened water wide
For you & I are drifting far from shore.
The beach-drunk sun set hours & hours before.
Admire the moon... the ever-ebbing tide,
The lap caress, the rivulets of bliss. 
Above the blue green gold of dreamless sleep,
The Milky Way, the depth of downy deep.
In love, we drift as if no land exists.

The waters rise & lift us side by side.
We cannot rescue love by loving more...
No death by drowning saved by single kiss.
The swell of sorrow, the dark sea’s endless sweep.
The lighthouse calls to lovers lost in love.
Took forty days, then Noah caught the dove.
