As the night descended
that pleasant summer evening
when the crescent moon
surreptitiously joined our union
the slight breeze danced
across our faces
the smells of the lake and fire
were positively delicious
in their earthly familiarity
I sat in front of you
when time came to a standstill
and body, mind and emotion
aligned to experience
the ultimate state of
bliss, peace and serenity
I suddenly became aware
and realised
the futility of words.
