Pefect Day

Your hand is in mine,
We are walking down
This deserted beach.
The sand between our toes.
The waves crashing on our ankles.
The seagull is crying out.
The wind is softly rustling.
The sky is full of brilliant colors.
Everything is great.
I’m looking at my feet, when
You stop and grab my other hand.
I start to look up
-BEEP!-BEEP!-BEEP!-
My alarm goes off just
Before I get to see your face.
The dream is gone,
I can’t get it back.
But I’ll always remember
This perfect day.
