Exhaling An Everlasting Memory

by Lu   Apr 24, 2006


Summer has finally arrived
washing away the cold weather blues
fireflies dance upon magical skies
lanterns to light our way

As we take a moonlight stroll
beneath a midnight sky
walking hand in hand
just you and I

Stopping to lay upon the silky sand
I lay my head upon your chest
reminiscing about the past many moons ago
to the time when we were young and carefree

Jumping up in one quick flash
I see a glimmer in your eye
you set of running,hurdling waves naked
like my young stallion of ,yesterdays

Tempting me to chase you
I give in against my better judgment
just to relive a moment of our past
a time when stress had no holds

Cold water tickles my skin
making me feel young again,so alive
splashing, giggling and living
nothing else matters but you and I

As we lay back on the beach exhausted
a soft gentle breeze begins to blow
we breath in the beauty of this summer night
exhaling an everlasting memory
