Wishing She Was Here
I tossed a coin
Into the drink
Then, saw it splash
And watched it sink
To make a wish
I hope comes true
Deep in my heart
– I dream of you
Forgive me, please
I carry on
It happens all the time
These thoughts of you
Warming my day
My love flows into rhyme
I’ll blow a kiss
Across the sea
Wrapped with a bow
To you, from me
Until we meet
Please hold it near
And know that I
wish you were here

After traveling thousands of miles around the world, it appeared that the final 50 miles would be the most difficult. For her love, however, no distance was too great and worth every bead of sweat…
You don’t have to travel that far, though, to enjoy great products featuring my design. Simply visit the following shops to discover cool merchandise: Redbubble, Pixels, Artflakes. Perfect for the holidays!!!
She found her heart one day beneath an old sweater
That was lost in the attic of her yesteryear
Collecting dust of memories long forgotten
She took it back for want of love that she found pure
Across the sea
4000 miles
Another heart did beat
In a young man
Whose love for her
Would make their lives complete
Together they would rule the world
Two hearts, one love intwined
To share this blessing they have found
Heaven on earth, defined
Holding hands in the park
sipping wine after dark
They were married last spring
Now, they live happily by the ocean in a unique home which he built out of several shipping containers. She’s a thriving romance novelist, writing from her office which opens to a courtyard garden, in the center of their house. Together, they share stories in real time – a day in the lives of two dreamers who took a chance to embrace true love.
The best is yet to come. Believe.
