Hold my hand 

Hold it tight

Hold me  close

With our feet in sand

Sea salt perfume

Mirror sea, dancing lights

Rhythmic waves ,

Cooling the mind

Warm breeze, in your hair

Gently flicking across your eyes

I stare at you mesmerised.

Steps on the beach 

Left behind as we advance 

Each one a memory gone

Randomly together

As we dance 

Eyes to the stars 

Retreat to the dunes

Grass waves it’s welcome,

In your arms , embrace the moment

Ghostly moon looks down,

Bathes the hollow  in black and white

Distant citadel, broods in silhouette 

Protecting those within and without

Comforting outline, standing guard 

Centuries of looking down on lovers.

Will crumble before our love for others.
