They stood under a floral rainbow
once the storm had passed
through a long dark summer
and the black months
had drifted north.

The early sun awakened her
gently touching a golden shoulder.
Beads of perspiration kissed
her upper lip good morning.
The white sand was her bed, there to cushion her
in case she fell back into his bad dream
or tumbled from a wedding vow.

She filled his ring with finger
and fed him cake and promises.
They sipped champagne and drank each other’s eyes
in their own secluded jungle.

Sweat dotted his shirtfront
when the breeze blew the loose cotton
against the porous skin
which had,
with foolish pride,
tried to restrain the wonderful new life that flowed from it.

Good poem.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.
