We walk slowly along the pier hand in hand the wind bathes within the foam of the waves rolling like a shaggy dog in a gust of sand I watch your beard as the wind closely shaves my finger traces the scar upon your lip restraining, forcing myself to behave When you smile I like to see the little chip the chip upon the edge of your front tooth it leaves an imprint upon our pleasure trips Your skin sweet and dark as Italian vermouth cool to the touch in the pale moonlight as we skinny dip in our fountain of youth Ocean whispers sweetly as Turkish delight the moon is aglow, a pink rose tonight A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) |

Sweetness, tenderness, passion, romance, and a little bit of daring! What more can anyone ask? To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |
