You are my Spring blessing

You are my Spring blessing
Loveliest girl in my world,
she drank her morning coffee and
her tan bare feet moving with the morning song
of the birds and the nearby sea.
The sea lions were singly loudly and
she told me.
I love the Monterey sounds , the strong coffee and
the poet’s song.
Please whisper me a poem to make me smile.
“Something wicked, something sweet.
You are.
You are my whiskey kisses at midnight,
you are my six am friend,
who walk the long Monterey sea shore with me.
I love you content, I love you restless.
You are my sea-side blessing,
a poet’s last wish.
I shall love you,
till I can’t love no-more.”
The prettiest girl near the dancing Pacific,
she smiled and she brought me near.
She wrapped her arms around me and
I laid in her lap.
She told me.
Thank you for the poetry and today,
you and I,
we shall find Big Sur.
We will climb to the highest peak,
kiss the sun,
embrace the clouds.
Allow the fragrant of the sun-kiss day,
to be written forever in our hearts.
I kissed her hands and I looked into her beautiful hazel eyes
and I told her.
You are my Spring blessing.

I was station at Fort Ord for three years in 1992-1994. I walked from Fort Ord to Monterey every day-off. Thank you Kristian for reading and the comment. A amazing place, the Monterey bay.
