Sea and Sky



                               Outreaching far, the sea
                               in me, and tide and longing in her
                               Above, around: just sky
                               grey shades in blue, deep luminosity
                               containing all, entwining you and me

                               But who has ever grasped the sky?
                             
                               Who held an ocean in their arms?

If you've truly been in love, you've grasped the sky and held the ocean in your arms, Martin. That's why your writing is so beautiful.

Dear Paul, thank you so much : ) You are right but I'm afraid air and water are volatile and fleeting ;-)
