In The Afterglow Of The Day Poem by Kaila George

In the afterglow of the day

We sit and stare at the day light

As it slowly fades beneath the horizon

Were the sea meets the sky in the afternoon glow?

Shyly we sit together and stare

At the beauty of the sunset as it shimmers and glows

Fingers touch in the sand, we shake as we touch

We glance at each other with a small smile on our face

Closer we move hearts beating so fast

Closer we move in the shimmering sands

Hands, body, hearts entwine

We indulge in the ecstasy that consumes the soul

Exhausted and spent from love making we two

We lay in the sands naked body's glimmering from the heat of our love

Then quietly but slowly fall asleep on the sands


Content and happy we dream of a future in white shimmering sands
