The climb
Was not
Without
It’s bumps;
A journey
Worth the view.
At last
We were there
Near the edge;
The jump enticing.
I tumbled and turned,
Moments moving; begging
The words tugging as I
Paused
Waves broke below and gulls cried out;
The wind buffeted around us as I breathlessly said,
‘I love you’
Not giving you time to respond lest you felt obliged,
I held you.
The big ‘L’ fluttered above us.
