Notes About The Poem

A Summer Sonnet

Two shadowed lovers share a warm embrace,
On the sandy shores of a romance new,
Along love’s edges, soft fingertips trace,
In the rhythm of love, their hearts beat true.

Beneath golden skies an amber sea sways,
Scintillating sensations on the skin,
Love moves through her soul in passionate waves,
He knocks at her door and she lets him in.

In shadowed embrace, their love takes flight,
Two hearts set sail upon the tranquil sea, 
One vessel dancing beneath the twilight.
In the throes of passion, two souls set free.

On the golden shores of a setting sun,
A sultry summer romance, just begun.
