He curls his lithe frame around mine. All arms and legs, a fluttering heart As a little bird’s, frightened but brave. I kiss him, he tastes like oranges, fresh strawberries, and courage. I smile the sun into his green eyes, Braid starlight in his curls, lick salt From his skin, the shore our bed, Lapping waves our spectators, Soaking us until he curves his back In roaring bliss. I carry him Over the moon into the sun. *** April 5, 2017 Copyright © Darren White

Way to keep this vivid description 'PG' and in lines with the rules. I sure hope his lithe little frame didn't melt amid the solar flares you abandoned him in :p It's gorgeous poetry, sheriff. Masterfully penned.

I think it's even PG-13 :D And hahahaha about melting his lithe frame, well, those waves lapped at uss, so it was well balanced. Thanks my friend :)

Imaginative wizardry with the pen, as your words describe ecstasy on the beach. Emile.
