______________________
Fragments of light filter past the seaweed
Sleeping in sun warmed water – unaware
My skin tight with salt water residue
Sunburned and relaxed next to you
My hair a rainbow across my narrowed eyes
Watching you look up at the sky
Determined to identify the light source
As the sun slips beyond your grasp
Leaving us in cool shades of blue
Absorbed from Mediterranean sky
White sundress is wrinkled now
My hand trembles on your shoulder
As I empty the sand from my shoe
You brush the hair from my eyes
A tender touch, not meant to tantalize
But somehow you do – mesmerize
Send shivers down my spine
How is it we knew the magnitude of inspiration?
Waiting for a kiss that would awaken the senses
How we talked for hours and hours
My feet touching each warm stone surface
Stacking up our ideas like towers
The wine went to our heads, suggesting the absurd
We lingered as long as we dared
Saying good night at the door.
