“ONE SOUTHERN NIGHT”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
Sun going down over the horizon,
ocean skies aflame at sunset…
Surf flowing in calm and gentle,
breezes caress your silhouette …

Shadows dancing on the wall,
ecstasy of you in motion…
Your hips sway with a beat,
southern islands, calypso…

Warmness of you beckons,
closer embrace, we continue…
Lips touch to softness of skin,
senses wake to this we brew…

Your hair like silk this evening,
fragrance sensual to inspire…
Yours I would be this night,
one southern night in desire…

Hello Bill

Your words were the epitome of everything romantic and were so very much enjoyed.

Take care......Sue

I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Mmmmm...may I have one of those special drinks with the little paper umbrellas in them? This is lovely. Chris

Oh BC you rascal you! This is soooo romantic. Loving it lots.

Hugs, Marti


Every now and then take a good look at something not made
with hands -- a mountain, a star, the power of the ocean.
