The sun, swallowed
By warm, still waters,
Now inky black
Under starlight.
Dancing in the sand,
Twirling your airy
Dress around
Sun-kissed ankles.
Smiling.
Left hand, lightly
Holds your shoes.
Naked toes enveloped
In the softness
Of the beach
Imploring the night
With your movement,
Caressed by a warm
Salty breeze
Your strap falls from your shoulder.
Dancing in the sand,
Because nothing else matters.
