The Earth and Sea

Somewhere between the simple, slow and quiet She found him, far away from the touristy crowd Shirt untucked, canvas slung over his shoulder His skin, warm and salty Sweet leftovers from his affair with the sea She missed his taste, a revelation realized As her lips traced each of his pulses Throbbing with life, so vital, so intense. He found her organic, neatly tucked away in the coastal hillside Her scent, as elemental as her beauty Her eyes, the violet that blooms from the Jacaranda tree Armeria painted her lips a soft spanish pink He charted her every detail in his mind He carefully navigated to points of interest His compass, his heart His hands, her pleasure Their love The earth and sea.
