Sand in my shoes

Sea breeze in my hair

Love in my eyes

The reflection in yours.

Muted reds of the sun

Painting sea and shore.

Hovering rain clouds

Biding time to burst.

Restless sea roaring

You and I yearning

Waves pounding

Our hearts hammering.

Hands longing to touch

Lips trembling to kiss

Infinitesimal moves

Creating chapters of love.

Hungry eyes devouring

Every word flowing

Hidden codes deciphering

Then in elation soaring.

Holding memories tight

We make our way home

As night gently falls

And afar flicker lights.

There is love in my eyes

Its reflection in yours

There is sand in my shoes

As there is in yours.
