To the beach

May our time together be as nice as I believe it to be

For what could be more lovely than the time that we spend together,

To see each other in our daily struggles,

To be with each other as we clasp hands,

The picnic that we brought got washed out to sea,

But not before I managed to save some bottles and a single sandwich,

We lament at the meal that we miss but not for long,

For you eat half the sandwich and offer me the last of it.

Your playful mood has me chasing you through the surf,

I chase you and ever you avoid me,

Just beyond my grasp,

Your smile glows and I can never forget it.

After the time of play the sun begins to set,

The sunset over the ocean is truly a sight to behold,

As you gave over the horizon I look at your smile,

For I see joy not only for the day but also for the company you are with.

You turn to meet my gaze and still smile as we enter the twilight,

With the sun down the stars begin to come out,

Our conversations get deeper and sometimes a bit silly,

The stars can all be plainly seen and yet your glow has yet to fade.
