Summer's beach-shored love
found blazoned in the echoed
laughter of city-sprites.
Waterfront blues
sung in each swimmer's pose,
each swimmer's strokes.
While along the heat-permeated
shores, beach-combers gingerly
make their way across
burning sands...wrapping
dampened towels around
their bodies. Tanned gods
and goddesses strutting
bronzed limbs in endless waves.
Older men and women
envious at the sight of
such youthful beauty...covering up
their not-so-perfect limbs. Thinking
of a time when they, too, were
the gods and goddesses of summer.
