My Peach Shells

Lusciously
My arms reach out to you
A warm embrace like the amber waves

Loving heart
Knowing the heat of night
The comfort of your heartbeat in mine

My peach shells
Reveal their seclusion
Through their residence ending beach home

Tender waves
Betrothed on sacred day
Shells found at the bottom of the shore
