Ocean Rental

By Dawne Zacharias

                                     We arrived at the rental, 
                                     a small house oceanside
                         We opened the windows the salt breezes 
                                       welcomed each room
                                      dropping our suitcases 
                             we looked at one another with big grins
                             finally, running and jumping into oceans grasp
                                The coolness enveloped our bodies
                                       splashing in the waves                               
                                    we see one another shining                                       
                                               
                                              free at last
                               
                              Away from the pressures of the world
                         Sweet desire springs forth from the joy we feel
                                     A newness is unconcealed
                                  pressing ourselves closely we find
                                  a new beginning of an open mind.

I am lying on the beach reading a book now. All you have to do is turn to your right to give me a "hi".

You encapsulate that feeling of freedom very nicely.

This was fun to read and dream about. Nothing like a trip to the ocean with that special someone.
