I took her hand and
led her to the sea,
There we stood and
looked to the horizon
It was then that
she spoke..no. whispered
Softly on the breeze
in tune with gulls
"The seas are troubled today. A mirror"
"Yet still life persists in spite of turbulence"
Cupping her chin and
kissing her cheek
I felt the warmth
emanating from her
"It's sad to ponder
the differences
When at a quantum level
we are the same"
You breathe in my skin
I sink you into me
We inhale and exhale
As one
Lips and teeth
graze blushed cheeks
subtle and solemn
our surrender
Salty sea air spray
Coats us both the same
"Your hair and my beard tickles
an interplay of gentle grit"
She grinned and
Sank deeper
Into me
Our bodies entwined
On the long grass
Stuck among the
stalks and insects.
