There were about 6 or 7 of them,

I was all alone on the other side of the island,

looking out upon the Bay of Fundy,

and there they were.

I was so close,

I could hear them converse.

Ava “What do you think of him girls?”

Peg “Ummm, I don’t think so”

Zoe “Nope”

D “I think he’s cute”

A “Me, you think I’m cute, me?”

D “I think he’s cute and sweet”

Peg...

Zoe “Well, go for it”

Ava “You go girl”

Then she came ashore,

and looked at me.

D “Turn around, I’m shy”

A “OK”

D “And no peaking”

A “OK”

D “Ready”

When I turned around,

she had shed her seal skin,

and hid it away in a safe place,

before my eyes stood the most beautiful woman,

I was beguiled.

A “Hi, my name is Art,

  but sometimes I am called Aristotle,

  or Ari.”

D “My name is Destiny,

   but sometimes I am called D.

A “I, uh, you, are...”

D “Ari, go back down the trail to the Lodge.

   I will be waiting there for you.”

And so I wended my way back,

along the twisting turning trail,

it felt like my life,

with every step in front of me.

As I finished the trail,

I could see the Lodge,

and there she was,

standing by the door,

waving to me.

I love your sweet face,

I love your coy smile,

I love your killer Baby Blues.

Save the knot,

that is the Promise,

hide it away,

in a safe place.

I will save your Spirit,

hide it away,

in a safe place,

in my hand and my heart.

I trust you,

I trust you,

I trust you,

I trust you.
