A Treasure Trove Found

a blazing red sky
romance whispered on the wind. . . .
our island retreat

strolling hand in hand
along a secluded strand. . . . 
the brink of passion

as long sun-warmed waves
crash against the ocean’s edge. . . . 
we fall to the sand

blissful on the beach
true feelings at last revealed. . . . 
a treasure trove found

Written by Andrea Dietrich

I could use some of those long sun-warmed waves to thaw out these sleet drenched legs. I want to live in your poems.
