Three Words In The Sand Poem by frank cooper

A warm breeze is blowing
As our feet caress the sand
Looking at the sky overhead
In the shoreline holding hands

Peaceful and quiet
The puffy clouds blow by
The sun warms our skin
I have never felt so alive

Then quietly we sit
Gazing into each others eyes
The sounds of seagulls and the waves splashing
And a ship? s horn echoes for miles

This precious day together
Feels like it? s just you and me
I want this to last forever
With you I want to be

Now the horn fades away
With a deep and mournful sound
The sun is setting far away
As we lay there on the ground

Just before we leave
You take my fingertips
And tell me to close my eyes
As you softly kiss my lips

Then as I open them
You let go of my hand
And there you wrote? I love you?
Right there on the sand
