We danced, we loved and you never departed my heart…
We danced , we loved and you never departed my heart…
I’m 65-year-old.
I don’t believe I’m wiser than when life was to be lived
and challenged.
Time is moving so quickly. Old dreams and wishes appear in my mind.
I want to go back to Monterey and sit upon the sand.
I would play some Leonard Cohen,
drink some sweet wines and dream of you.
We allowed our lives to become apart.
You went on to travel the world and I was left wishing for you.
In sweet dream I dream I never stop loving you and celebrating being alive.
I see us with friends.
Dancing and holding so tightly by the lights of the Monterey night.
I wonder do you ever think of me?
Did you find someone to light up your wild and beautiful spirit?
I close my eyes.
Remember our long sweet kisses leading to our bodies interlocked till the morning light.
We walked the beaches of Monterey for 6 months.
Two hands and hearts holding tightly for we knew our time to dance, love
and celebrate being together would be but a moment in a life.
I don’t feel sadness for the sweet memories of you still warm up my old heart today.
I wish one day to find you. Tell you thank you for teaching me love
and how to dance by the light of the Monterey moon and celebrate being alive.

Yes time flies….never went to Monterey, but I can relate to that and to the time passing, closer to 70 than 60 now, it is a bit frightening, maybe time to feel the urge to produce some art again…:)

Me too my friend. I will be sixty-six in August. I would still try to catch a wave in a California Winter storm. Thank you for reading.
