Summer Sun

The sheer wonderment the sun, sea and sand bring to us is perhaps an echo of humanity's primordial relationship with the sea. Among the sheer variety of emotions and wonderment the beach conveys to us, romantic love is up there.

It is not unsurprising that couples choose seaside destinations for their romantic interludes and honeymoon. There is an infinitely sensual nature to lying on the beach, letting the waves caress our feet.

The added bonus of sunshine and it's eventual fade into night that melts everyone's heart.

This poem was written with such a day in mind, where there are just two souls entwined in romance, enjoy their day and await the coming night.

Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. The song, 'Summer son' by Texas, seemed an appropriate soundtrack to the video above.

Lying on the sand

As the waves caress our feet

The sun is beating down

The skin feels all the heat

♥

Can you hear the sea

As it rushes closer still

You move close to me

And my heart begins to fill

♥

Summer sun, summer fun

Air is free, seagulls flee

Summer sun, summer fun

No one here, but you and me

♥

Dripping wet your hair

Sand sticking to your skin

You’re my maiden fair

I like the way you glow within

♥

Salty are your lips

As I cover them with mine

Hands rest on your hips

And your eyes begin to shine

♥

Summer sun, summer fun

The sky is blue, clouds are few

Summer sun, summer fun

Feeling new, golden hue

♥

Baby world can end

As we lie here on the beach

Untold words we send

As heaven’s in our reach

♥

Love the way you move

I chase you to the sea

The waves roar and approve

Surround you and surround me

♥

Summer sun, summer fun

Seashells glow, love does flow

Summer sun, summer fun

Cupid’s bow, time does slow

♥

Deep blue the water is

As we dive under the foam

Oh how much we do wish

We were dolphins on the roam

♥

The sun begins to slide

Dusk creeps up on the sky

Lying side by side

Let’s not reason why

♥

Summer sun, summer fun

Hold me tight, feel the night

Summer sun, summer fun

Let’s take flight, in moonlight

♥

Eternity is

Closer than you think

You and I and bliss

Million stars begin to blink.
