We Bridge The Ocean In Our Dreams
Photo Artistry by Erik Johansson Master Photo-manipulation Artist
Oceans apart, you are so far from me, out of my reach,
Beyond that forbidden line at our horizons edge.
A forbidden line which separates and divides,
And keeps us disunited and out of that elusive true reality.
I dream we somehow bridge that cruel crevass,
And find a way to paint a tapestry of life and hope.
A way so I can make a deep connection to your soul
And walk into your life hand in hand to span eternity.
Perhaps then we can add some colour to our lonely sky,
To kiss those rescued rejuvenated clouds,
Their linings touched with silver from the dawning sun,
We can fly as freely as those birds on high.
Perhaps then we can add some colour to our lonely sky,
To kiss those rescued rejuvenated clouds,
Their linings touched with silver from the dawning sun,
We can fly as freely as those birds on high.

DeleteVery nice, Ed! I love the photo prompt...beautiful. and you know how I love clouds. Dont see any shapes in those, though. Ha.
ReplyDeleteThanks Betsy. Glad you like it.
DeleteShapes. Oh I don't know. The cloud in the foreground looks like a big dolphin jumping high out of the water and back into the sea. Do you see it. Pardon the pun.
Now that you mention it, I do see it!
DeleteIt would make a tremendous splash and ruin that beautiful picture. 😂
DeleteSo lovely, Eddie. I imagine you're writing here about your departed love of your life, as I've had these feelings so often of late myself. Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen.
DeleteIt is a very difficult time for you and I feel deeply for you. In my experience it stats to get progressively easier after 4 years or so.

I feel the loneliness. This is beautifully written.
