it is always pleasing
to take
the almost sluggish route
of luxurious connection
represented in the meeting
of like minds and the sharing
of a common philosophy
a lovely contrast to
so many combative years
on the battle front
challenging the foe
nice to
tread water softly
in a flat calm surf
bobbing together
in the deep blue sea

suddenly
a rogue wave
appears from nowhere
dumping
the unsuspecting surfers into
a washing machine whirl spin
racing
until it crashes
thud
a white fizz froth
spreading along the shore
dissipating
disappearing
into the sand

seaweed in her hair
the only evidence
of the momentary upheaval
apart from the deep fissure
cracking the peace
