Together in Time
Somewhere in the yawning abyss of time
We're together on a breezy day that is simply sublime
Perhaps we're under a chartreuse umbrella drenched in rain
We could be meandering down a leaf-littered lane
Or suppose we're at a local al fresco cafe
Sipping mint tea and sharing a souffle
Occasionally I wonder if we're dangling our legs and feet
In a cool cerulean wave beneath the tropical sun's heat
What if your hand rests atop mine on an ivory key
While you're attempting to teach me a sonorous melody
Maybe we're painting a gargantuan masterpiece
On the side of an airplane hanger in Nice
If' I'm mowing the high-grown grass
You'll pour me lemonade in an ice-cold glass
So, if I imagine that you're out there waiting somewhere
Then life just might be easier to bear

The ending is bothering me. It needs fixing. It's lackluster and SO TYPICAL AND EXPECTED. This poem calls for outstanding endings, not Hallmark ones.
