Twists & turns, love & life,

so often follow suit.

Sunshine, blue skies & white fluffy clouds

a gentle breeze and you.

Twists & turns blow in with the clouds,

once white now black they loom.

Over water once calm and lovely,

the waves now darkest blue.

Love & life, a heart full of hope

unaware rejection looms,

blowing in with the tide at sunset

blocking the rise of the moon.

As storm winds blow, dark clouds pile high

and waves rise toward heaven.

Creating fear in sailors’ hearts

they whisper prayers toward heaven.

Love & life, twists & turns

fair skies, champagne and you,

rests in my memory from this day…
