Part X:
The Beach

The Beach:

Upon the sands where waters gleam, a symphony of light,
Day and night, the beach aglow, a wondrous, radiant sight.
A cherished vision, crystal clear, in hues that brightly gleam,
A Maiden’s heart, alive and near, within this tranquil dream.

Through her brush, life unfurls, with each heartfelt stroke,
Her tale unfolds, a story bold, where colors vividly awoke.
My Maiden and I, in dreams we soar, to the shore we fly,
Yet for now, it remains a dream, a vision in the sky.

With my Maiden gone, the beach is silent, void of laughter's charm,
My tears caress the canvas, revealing her soul's warm glow.
Her heart she shares, with tender grace, making my spirit whole,
One day, I dream, on this sun-kissed shore, together we'll stroll,
Hand in hand, forever more, as our love's eternal role.

Introduction:

Of all the gifts I have received in my lifetime, this painting holds a special place in my heart. Created by Alexandra before our paths even crossed, she later surprised me with it. I was instantly captivated, eager to find the perfect spot to display it. Now, it graces the mid-landing of my stairs, illuminated by soft lights. Each day, I pause to admire it, contemplating the inspiration and emotions that guided her hand during its creation.

To me, this work speaks of endless possibilities, freedom, and warmth. Perhaps Alexandra, in her search to make these aspects of life a reality, imbued the painting with her dreams. I wish I could have played a role in turning those dreams into reality, yet I find myself reflecting on another missed opportunity in my life.
