the story part 5 of ?

...if your are new to the story dear reader, please go back and read the story...

part 5 :

...yes life has loosened the Goddess

broken pieces that lined the beach
become treasures in sand castles

she stopped waiting for the Captain
and was awarded her companion  

dawn breaks, the sky - blue bird
time has opened a wormhole

from dark and stormy memories
to a modern joie de vivre

the light house; towering above
is a new nest - a beacon to paradise reclaimed

sun filters through polarized lenses
and joy is evident on sun kissed faces

the surf rouses a playful spirit
the waves brough them togeher

and in the ebb and flow 
is found a new rythmn

betrayal becomes an ancient story
and hurt becomes a myth

in a dusty novel not fit for a bookcase
but bound for a starry night fire...

love was found in letting go
healing came from the inside out

It was when the Goddess learned to ride the waves
that Love surfed in on a board through the wake 

...and the story is still being written...

the Lady is working on patience

there is an invitation at the door 
In a scented envelope 
carefully scripted to you 

in the practice of courtship
my heart asserted not to enter
but to wait; so...

i gave it to the footman
to quietly deliver 
so as not to disturb you

...but i ran past him in haste
and gingerly, yet expectantly 
placed it there myself 

i don't even know if you dance
and i've never let anyone lead
so this is an invitation for adventure
and if grace or folly ensue it won't matter
as i have stood on the edge of the floor for too long
