Kiss me without stopping,
both slow and fast.
Let our seashell hands
naturally clasp,
knowing what's forming between them
will outlast.

And in that windy moment,
feet and eyes waltz,
the dawn chorus blasts,
hearts beat a colorful new melody,
our lives a seaside musical;
our roles together, 
heave-ho cast.

A summer fever, 
a tide-turning trance,
but it only took a moment
for you to ask me 
for a sea-side dance.

    1. Thank you, John. I think it came together, and it had to rather quickly. These days seaside have me all mushy and sentimental.
