Across the Winds and Waters

He stood there wide eyed

And glanced at the silent sea,

At the end of the white waters

She looked out of her windows too;

Feeling ... the silent breeze.

Two different worlds

Through different eyes;

Two different shores

And yet the same skies;

Where the waves in its merry mirth

Hushed   their differences.

It was the longing of togetherness

The longing to be one ;

Like a pearl to her oyster;

Like  a mother  to her son.

He breathed those breezes

And his lips murmured her name;

That echoed across the world so far

And in his lonely heart;

It perched once again.

She felt the soft waters

Slip across her fingers ;

And she whispered his name...

Gently with the waves it drifted

To his lonely heart;

Where it perched forever again.

And the two different worlds;

Through different eyes

Mingled to be one

Like the infinite blue skies.

The waves..... In its merry mirth

Had hushed  their difference.
