I’ll take a lime with my Corona please


The alcove nestles itself between the mountains
and the ocean, just like the soft crevice between your
mother’s breasts, that comforted you as a child.
Sounds of current soar aloft, and orchestrate
the azure sky into a aria of soft tones.

The small path leading down past the palm trees,
invites the senses, as the plush foliage is replaced
with the softness of granular downy.
It’s like walking on velvet skies,
and you can still see the imprint of footfall
of an earlier escapade upon the white sand,
before the crescendo of turquoise waves
washes over them, leaving the
shoreline immaculate and alluring;
as if the beach itself is a waning virgin,
enjoying her first taste of passion.

The tart sweetness of lime,
tickles your hungry lips as it’s
plucked from a newly opened bottle of Corona.

Eyes shut, relaxation commences...

“You’ve got a call on line one.”

“Hello, are you there?”

I then realize it’s not a good idea to stare at
The World’s Best Beaches calendar
while at work.

Corona's commercial is one of my favorites, and this sure brought that right to life again in my mind.  Ole'

Liz~
THIS line of thought is creatively brilliant~

'the beach itself is a waning virgin,
enjoying her first taste of passion.'


Oh yes~

Oh Liz! You are incredible. There
I was, in that alcove listening to
the crescendo of turquoise waves when
WHAM!

Well I don’t have to tell YOU
what happened. Ingenious work!
