Beach Side Romance Poem by Britney Hogue

Its dusk now
As the sun begins to set
We sit on a soft blanket
Surrounded
By sand and salty air
And watch lights last moments
Before dark moves in.

The suns orange and pinks
The seas greens and skies blues
And your beautiful skin
And sandy colored hair
What is one to do but melt
As you hold me close
Looking deep in forest green eyes

Two red wet lips meet
And a had feels a soft cheek
The only sound heard
Is that of white ocean wave
But only shortly before
A group of sea gulls cry
Flying closely over head.

Such a peaceful serenity
As the sun finishes its journey
And we wonder to a beach side cabin
For a romantic candle lite dinner
We watch a shower of gold stars
Before we drift to a deep sleep
Only held in another’s arms
