Last Embers of Daylight

The last embers of daylight gleam across a round sky to leave a red ribbon on the horizon...to underscore The flourishing evening invites us in as we slide our feet through the sea's soft sand where waves lap the shore like a honey bear's tongue on the first days of Spring rising from a deep Winter's slumber Bending palms persuade us to sit beneath their green canopy Where our eyes drop their disguise of innocence to reveal a cherished moment of romance worn as a necklace on the silhouette of love that shines bright beneath the glorious glow of sunset burning an image into the hollows of my hallowed mind where liquid thoughts pour out in harmony onto the tidal currents of love's ebb and flow Tranquility rushes into pliable veins an elixir tugging on the fervor beating in my chest where warm alluring hands nurture the marrow essence of love holding me a silent captive waiting for the memories we will make with each kiss shared...that arouses our quivering fervent souls in a coronation of hearts wrapped in garments of golden luster as we dissolve in an evening's glow of red grandeur filled with sensual imaginations floating on the brume of candlelit dusk and soft music beckoning us towards a romantic night of breathless sighs and empty wine glasses 7/8/19
