Ocean Beach in San Francisco
This is a guest post by my buddy Mitch Marcus. It is a raw, passionate and compelling poem. I want to thank Mitch for his contribution to my blog. You can visit his blog by clicking the link at the end of this poem. The photo above was taken by me at Ocean Beach in San Francisco. Enjoy!
To Love Is To Live
I miss her so much
I will patiently wait for her
For the rest of time
I dream of redemption
Of receiving a short note
That asks
Will you come to me?
Half way around this world
Will you come for me?
Yes, I say
I will cross the oceans
And ford the rivers
I will come for you
I will listen harder
I will see clearer
I will speak less
I will love more
Although that seems impossible
To love anyone more
Than I love you
Than I had loved you
Than I will love you
I miss her so much
So much that I cry on a perfect day
I miss her
And I will wait
Forever

I love your photo above. I'm afraid of heights so no way could I have been looking down taking a shot like that. Very nice poem from Mitch.
Very nice poem. That photo is great, but I'm with Jude I don't know if I could have taken the shot :)
Jude, I am too so it's always a bit precarious when I take shots like that :)
Ann,lol I get a little scared at times as well.
Awesome photo and beautiful poem...
A very intense poetry follows by intense waves at the shore. I love it.
That is quite a drop and emotional poem. I feel like I need to lean against a railing to look at your photo.
I love the poem and the photo as well.
Come and visit me, I have something for you. :)

Very touching poem.
Beautiful photo, Jo, and a very nice poem also. I'm feeling a bit dizzy after reading how others feel about looking down :-)
Thank you all for your comments. Yes I had to stand near the edge of a cliff for that shot, thank God there were no gusty winds :D Thanks to all.
Incredible photo...that would definitely give me vertigo. I don't like open heights.
This poem is so sad, so filled with longing. My heart aches for him.
