Afternoon Tan
She bathes in sunlight
Awaiting his lotioned hands
Only to burn more
He comes to her side
Balm splattered on her soft skin
Providing massage
She, in turn, quivers
As the chilly wet moisture
Gives way to goose bumps
Hands give skin delights
As smiles fall upon the two
And heat between burns
