Even now I think of you with a kind of awe. Do you laze at evening on an azure shore, you whom I last saw twenty years ago, or contemplate from a beach house in Goa the Indian Ocean breaking on a coast where my love, gratitude and grief lie waste? If only we’d fought off the final row; but, poets both, we saw the drama through. Decades divide us from the life we lost and only in spirit can I be with you now. From Goa.
