Summer Carries You In Its Fades

encompassed
in the last days 
of summer

i eavesdrop
on the ocean's whisper
your voice carried
in its sighs

your caress
in its waves
as i undress

seduction
within its salty spray
as i bathe
in drops 
of your scent

the horizon
blushed
in tones
of me
beneath
this memory

Oh my, let me catch my breath. Sandy, this was beautifully sensual and so soft and alluring. They way you wrote this, as if in a whisper, has the reader, me, falling helplessly into each stanza drenched in your mesmerizing words.
