Footprints In Moonlight

The waves, they whispered in the night,as i lay beneath the starry light. The smell of sand , the ocean's breeze, cold currents swept accross my knees.

Eyes closed tight, i felt him near, a presence strong, a voice so clear. A man appeared, with tattoos bold, in white, with eyes that stories told.

He smiled and said with soft delight, "your eyes, the shine like stars tonight". He sat beside me, close and still, and goosebumps rose and i couldn't hide.

We laughed, we talked, beneath the sky, the stars our witness the night our guide. Then up he stood, his hand in mine, i wondered," what's this bold approach?"

He pulled me close, his chest so near, a playful glint, no hint of fear. With smile he tossed me into the sea, " what's the beach without a splash?" he screamed and ran.

Suprise and joy lit up my face, as i chased him down the moonlit space. laughter echoed, soft and sweet, our footprints dancing on the beach, "Is this real?" i smiled once more, as the waves embraced us on the shore.
