Lost at Sea

What sun could shine to match that look of wonder?
The coruscations in her eyes when waves
Would catch her by surprise and steal her breath
Away — just moments, then — and so fulfill
A child’s delight, a father’s happy ending;
Now lost at sea, his gaze is on her still.
From “Reflections of the Sea” at Chalkboard’s Sestina Synthetica project.
