The Challenge

[nolie]

We rock on the balcony swing
our bodies touch, skin against skin
A breeze gently blows
and eyes slowly close
a dream is about to begin

My eyes open slowly to you
the ocean is deep crystal blue
We walk on the sand
us two, hand in hand
our fingers entwined as we do

The sand is a shimmering sight
the fish in the water so bright
I give you a flower
its petals a shower
of delicate purple on white

The flower you place in your hair
but not before kissing me where
my breath starts and ends
as time stops and bends
I'm lost in your intimate stare
