Love On the Beach

Sur la plage in France, I thought I'd found romance, My olive skinned beauty with cascading hair, Smiling so sweetly, I tried not to stare, Her body was bare but for a peach thong, I was there naked, she saw nothing wrong, We spoke in a broken half-French, word by word, But thoughts unspoken were louder still heard, I said 'I'm Nick' and she said 'I'm Celeste', Oh Celeste, as you rubbed sun oil onto my chest, Your eyes they were burning, they encaptured me, More sparkling, more blue, than the Cote D'Azur sea, I longed for your neck to feel my kisses sweet, So I looked at you not as I massaged your feet, Our chaste romance ended before it began, Your boyfriend returned and I cowardly ran.

Thanks for sharing this. I greet you with the love of the Lord expressed in John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
