Play

Running through the undergrowth, excitement filled his heart,
lush leaves speeding by, batting his face and urging him on,
and then Space... -

Clear, blue, open space!

Rushing air! A leaping heart! A sudden drop!
SPLASH!

The icy water welcomed him at once, in playful swirls,
his arms moved and slid through the swirls,
playing back, and returning the welcome.

Steadying his mind he took in the scene.
There she lay,graceful,
on the bouldered shore.

She too welcomed him, with that smile, with those luscious lips.
Radiant beauty, soft muscles, smooth tan skin, all welcoming him home.

And together they played - he, her, and the water.
