As Salt Cures the Heart

thundering surf pounding the sand  
the sea's passion as it kisses the shore  
with a ferocity that takes my breath away    
nature's percussion      
the heartbeat of God    
   
you're still the one    
after all these years    
hiding your thoughts beneath those Vaurnets    
your grin giving you away    
   
I can see every wicked thought as it traipses    
across your mind    
the slight adjustment to the way you are sitting    
I catch you staring    
   
you don't even realize you are smiling   
so pull me close lover    
as the sun warms my skin    
so you warm my soul    
   
whisper your desires into my ear    
take my hand as you hold my heart    
what God joined together    
let no man part    
   
As yesterday, as today and forever Beloved
