Anita

the blue of the evening descends and rolls across the Adriatic Sea
the breeze of the evening draws near and kisses cheeks and whispers wistfully
somewhere a bird that has long been seeking open skies
unfolds its wings in sweet release and it flies
up high where the reds of an ever burning sun still linger glowingly
the light recalls a distant memory, and I look for Anita - where is she ?

as glints and soft sparkles from gently moving waves embrace eternity
in one fleeting moment all time slows down and pauses everlastingly
feelings and unfaded dreams and thoughts from yesterday
drift into view and mesmerisingly stay
right here, brooding eyes recollect and gaze and wander reminiscingly
the light recalls a distant memory, and I look for Anita - where is she ?

burgeoning white cloud-trails arching like farthingales
gathered in crimson rays dance in the light and reignite
in an unending stream embers poured from a dream
there in the burning sky memories glow from long ago

and from awakening skies a radiance above
shines and illuminates a still burning love
for one melting moment all things stand in the sky the way they used to be
the light recalls a distant memory, and I look for Anita - where is she ?
