Grayish clouds obscuring the sun’s golden rays.
Breezes creating white tendrils across flowing waves.
Salt air creating delicious smells and tastes.
Love abound on the sands of a deserted shore.

Footsteps wandering sporadically across dry patches.
Disappearing with the receding tide of a beckoning sea.
Birds stalking hidden morsels of crab and fish.
Laughter drowned out from the crash of waves ashore.

Smiling faces absorbing love through bright eyes.
Walking side by side, sensually touching hip to hip.
Feet tickled by waters caressing toes, splashing.
Hands touching intimate places shared freely.

The sound of a distant horn warning of a craggy shore.
Lights of red, blue, green, rotating white.
A lighthouse calling for lovers to unite once more.
Truly a romantic and sensual sight.

Running through dunes covered by grass.
Hiding and peaking in anticipation of loves caress.
Laughing while recklessly running away.
Feigning the terror of the chase.

Caught from behind by strong arms, whirling around.
Giggling as kisses become part of one’s face.
Tongues tickling and sharing a delightful taste.
Gentle strokes of wind blown hair across a lover’s face.

Caught by the gentle attack of rain driven tears from above.
Running hurriedly to a place warm and dry.
Crashing through the open door
Falling and wrestling in a mock anger’s embrace.

Two shadows again become one against a grey sky.
Rains fall in a natural lullaby, bringing sleep to happy eyes.
Love grows amongst the dunes, sea driven wind sings a sigh.
