A poem, Abandoned ocean cave

There are moments when my mind rushes like a flapping ocean wave

I observe myself staring

While standing in an old abandoned ocean cave

The whitecaps ripple reflecting memories of past events

Like lazy summer nights together

In a hurried pitched tent

Making passionate love, swimming against the swirling current stream

Around and around

As we glide aimlessly downstream

Cooking breakfast on an old makeshift barbecue grill

Hot coffee, bacon and eggs

To get our morning fill

Searching inside the old weathered water soaked cave

Finding names and dates, some very old

Lovers initials lovingly engraved

Then I see a painting of a lovely garden scene

Brings back the aroma of sweet lilac

I used to put in my china figurines

Suddenly I hear a knock on my door.......................

Slowly I leave the ocean cave

And the beautiful decor

I know in my heart of hearts i'll visit again real soon

Happy memories will forever remain hallowed

Surrounding the shallow

Lagoon.
