Our Island - Our Beach - Our Love

Our island ~ our beach ~ our love As moments lazily pass, sighing breezes we sit silent ~ adrift as a single composed symphony tempo’d by the rhythmic surf ~ its constant sensuous flow lulling our hearts, aching to collide in one melodic breath Horizons blush, love’s mist lingers arms of cradling desire caress beauty ~ lone of seashell mosaics, palm leaf shade, cool murmurs on warm sand Your swollen lips offer a glistening enchantment~ their taste, salty pleasures of virginal mornings Velvet waves entice ~ white foam illusions drift quietly ~ carelessly ~ soothing We too build and recede, feeding our amorous needs As a slowly setting sun embraces an aquamarine sky, you glow in effervescent shimmers at my touch Our bond remains unbroken ~ tethered to an ocean’s hypnotic trance your body against mine, skin upon glistening skin merely to hold you ~ feel you~ kiss you, is my coastal haven Now as the fading light relinquishes its hold and dusk splashes violet secrets on a weary sky ~ the tide becomes a single motion within us for this is our island ~ our beach ~ our love and it shall forever be 1/30/17
