Twilight Magic

Pearlescent sand glistens on your skin; I gaze into warm eyes;
their sheen is the radiant blue of waves caressing this shore.
As stars appear - glittering - I’m shimmering into you.

For the contest "Sweet Sijo"

That's beautiful, Andrea. So romantic! I imagined the plumber and his fiancee holding hands in the flooded hall when I saw the pic of Linda-Marie and her husband paddling in the sea LOL
