Sparkles

I likened me to the sea and you – a beautiful fish
I watched you swim and dance below my sun-kissed waves
Your movement aerated my water, bringing me life, and so oxygen to your lungs
I watched you develop within your protected surroundings 
I felt your every movement as they caressed the very fabric of my being
My existence was for you and yours for me, as we nurtured our lives together
I saw you smile from all around – and around I always was
My whole body ebbing and flowing to the rhythm of your life 
We were together through the cycles of the moon, the day and the night, 
Giving each other such company and devotion as found only in mariners’ tales
We danced and swam together and drifted upon life’s unknowns
And we shall again my Beauty...
