making the most of moonlight


boardwalk walking, ocean stalking warmth of your hand in mine

carnival lights seam the sea shore, threads perfectly aligned

grains of sea salt on your lips, rims of margarita glass

i sip the intoxication and let the laughter pass

 

the game booths abound and surround, show love by how you win

we’re walking and talking oblivious to all that spins

the stars alight like polka dots across the western sky

i buy you a forget me not and kiss you with a sigh

 

we walk down the to surging sea that saturates the shore

away from all the dancing lights where darkness is décor

our kiss is wetter than the waves that die around our feet

our bodies dent the supple sand that we employ as sheets
