Analysis of A Beach So Well Designed
There upon the soft warm sand,
right at the very edge of land,
a gentle breeze cooled the heat
while soothing waves caressed our feet.
We stirred and smiled into each others eyes,
so blessed were we below those azure skies,
bodies bronzed by weeks of naturism's rules,
quite relaxed by time away from noisy fools.
We rose together and gently washed away the sand,
that caked our skin in places that were never planned,
then embraced again in the warm and easy surf,
knowing there we shared all that was truly worth,
the time of man and woman to invest in every day,
and hoping we could always feel just that way.
An island with a beach so well designed
may exist somewhere beyond our minds,
but until we can locate that special one
where we can ever rest and play upon,
still we can enter our dreamscape each night
to continue with all our passions delight.......
