Dull mind, cold winds return
Grey skies dominate the horizon
What now of the sand and the sea
Of the suns heat laid onto bare bodies
Think then to the first introductions
Without innocence; witness rampant
Roots, of loves flaming associations
Dream then, of conversations
With permanence at heart
Rocking chairs on the verandah
Sing then of life's untold hold
On boundless joy; her counter
To doubts & the depths of despondence
