Summer Holiday

Summer Holiday

07/05/2018

The natural way we came together,
Waves break, shells and coral lay united.
Tides rise pounding lust to regions nether,
Together one, all senses delighted.

Water warm elicits such temptation,
Frolick free from restraint veiled in sweet sweat.
Free all constraint, such sweet revelation,
Flotsam floating rudderless, upturned, swept.

Fun in the sun on holiday we chose,
Reality bites, the tide starts to turn.
Burning sun, bright days drawing to a close,
A tsunami of emotion, heart burn.

Summer done, longing for the sun I pine,
Holiday done, I left my heart behind.
