In The Misty Woods
In the misty woods
As time and place blended
Into something outside each
We made love
In so many ways
As dolphins laughed
And humpbacks sang
And after when we napped
Our lives unfolded
Year after year
In work and pleasure
Challenge and discovery
Again and again
Meeting and parting
In patterns of a dance
Always sharp and clear
Yet just at the edge of sight
Peripheral moments
Adding up to lives spent
As so many coins
Held and saved
And released
One by one.
