Ellenborough Falls Large
picnic at Elands
she sat there, at ease
in her comfort, serene
her smile would warm the bleakest sky
her eyes inviting, enquiring
unfolding into mine
making memories
I am unaccustomed to such reverie
as she may be
our coming together overcomes
leads us to a naturalness
an affinity, where we are now
but something surreal too
surrounds us
this place
a magic tranquility
an evocation
and an adventure
here we can be as we want
our love requited, uncomplicated
free of conditions and what went before, pure
like the water falling over the rocks and stones near where we sit
cascading, immersing and rising
the intensity of it
strong as this bond we feel
deep as our meaning and our truth
trusted in our hands, in our caress
to be ours
this day and beyond
