Rendezvous

Lovers rendezvous at ocean’s break,    
 
 Feet  upon the sandy brown mat    
 
 Whereupon decorates the sill    
 
 of water’s  foamy welcome;    
 
 Towels stretched out on earth’s warm bed,    
 
 Hands  held tight, intertwined, while days of love   
 
 Multiplied by years of knowing  hearts,    
 
 and wind gently kisses damp bodies;   
 
 wet lips leave trails  the length of   
 
 written names in the sand,    
 
 Love devouring souls    
 
 with morning’s new light;    
 
 Buried treasures reside   
 
 for the lovers  find, while    
 
 Emerged bodies play    
 
 in ocean’s temperate water;    
 
 Sand pushed between two sets of ten toes,    
 
 Surf breaking upon their  love,   
 
 Surging within their innermost depths of lust,  
 
 Mounting  heartbeats occur on ocean’s ride;    
 
 Later, begin again, on the sand,    
 
 where their rendezvous began.
