We knew in that moment
we were born in Beauty, that we were born
for Beauty's sake, that we held the Cosmos
to our ear, that the great shell on the endless beach
was actually the wheel of the stars, that here were
worlds within worlds within worlds, that our bodies
contained multitudes and yet our hearts alone,
that the world loved us, that the world needed us,
that the tinge of dawn's first light on the beauteous waves
of your hair re-created the Universe, that the stars
were dreams, afire with Light and Love, that the imagination
was a Vision, a river, a landscape of dream and desire,
that the shape of your breast as it filled my hand
solved all the secrets previously hidden and long forgotten,
that galleons sailed, that wild birds took wing, that dragons
pondered amid the clouds, bearded and bemused,
that the rift between dimensions was
the rainbow bridge of dreams...
