Girl By the Pool

Location

Girl by the pool, girl by the pool

Beauty bestowed and wits by

For such beauty I’ll play the fool

And show to you where the river lie

 

Where passion knows no bounds but time’s flow

The river in the valley I must be

Thrusting the ravenous rocks to go

Love lasting minutes then to the sea

 

When the river ends there so must we

Time rules love is the ultimate lore

Yet my heart here free with thee

For wondering could there be more

 

To the sea we go as hearts leap

The sea above and gaping land beneath

Alas hallow is the sea if ocean deep

And to mollify is land’s only relief

 

Separate we must be sea and land

Time the allusion on which love rests

Empty is the sea despite its span

Although lovers in time do their best

 

But the ocean can avoid the current fate

Earth is blue land together intertwined

It controls the day and makes time late

Making no difference of yours and mine

 

By the pool a world became we

Our love united dry land and water wet

Timeless, our beauty with time to be

Recall such was the day we met
