They Ride Together

She rides the chestnut stallion

Along the golden beach,

His heart thumping as he waits

For her to come in reach.

With butterflies in her stomach,

She dismounts, releasing the reins.

They fall into each other’s arms,

Blood pumping through their veins.

 

Their lips meet with a passion,

An ecstasy of longing.

Together they experience

A strange sense of belonging.

One kiss leads to another,

At last they come up for air.

“Hi again,” they say as one

Then laugh without a care.

 

They take the horse back together,

It’s the end of her working day.

She runs her father’s riding stables,

He learns along the way.

 

He rides the chestnut stallion

Through the scented park,

Amidst the lilac blossoms,

The old oak’s gnarled bark.

He seems to have a gift for it,

She claps her hands in appraisal.

They ride together through avenues

Of horse chestnut and hazel.

 

Onlookers stop to watch them pass,

What a picture they must be making!

A warm summer’s evening ahead

Miraculously theirs for the taking.

Eating in a restaurant,

They talk throughout their meal.

They both insist on paying

But it’s really no big deal.

 

Skinny dipping and giggling,

As they enjoy a sunset swim.

While the waves crash and soar

She falls in love with him.

He catches her up in his arms

And carries her to shore,

Lays her down upon the sand,

Her body to explore.

 

Soon at one with the busy waves,

They thrash and soar in time

On the otherwise deserted beach

Young love in its prime.

Gently at first then faster,

Deep kissing in pure glee

Oh, such sweet satisfaction!

Reaching heights of ecstasy.

With apologies to Stefan's heart, but I never said there'd be a bedroom scene!!!
