Sling of Arrows

Hold your hands above your head

sun burnished beauty, dance tonight

listening to the song of ocean waves

dancing on silk cobalt sea of our whispers

breeze whistles sweet jingles of love

gems in the sky light up our night

warm kisses of salty breath linger

day dreams spray as sea mist wanders

flocks of birds chase their own cries

as we listen to the soft slow rhythm

embrace the moment as winged, naked

child of love slings arrows in upbeat swells

heartbeat ascends on cusp of spent waves.
