Swimming In the Moonlight

When swimming in the moonlight
In a warm, secluded place
No need of a restricting bathing suit,
Since there’s no one else in sight
Relax and enjoy the solitude,
Bathed in soft glow of moonbeams
Meditate on nature’s finest gifts
And revel in your heart’s delight,
Not so often available, it seems
Take time to explore your dreams.

I believe he spoke of swimming in the moonlight, which inspired this little poem. Thanks for your read and your thoughts.
