Perfect Day

I watch you walk to the shore in the chill pre-spring air-
My heart is beating faster than your step...
I love you and you do not know...
You toss your line and turn and smile-
You pull the line and show me your prize...
I love you and you do not know...
We search for rocks in the sage and scrub-
We scramble up a muddy hill-you take my hand...
I love you and you do not know...
You hold me tight-and I lose my breath-
I breathe you in...
I love you and you do not know...
I feel the gentle agony of your touch-
I whisper in your ear...
I love you and now you know...

A perfect day...
