Day 27: Night Swimming
Jan 30, 2022
The sky was putting on show for us that night.
A blanket of diamonds and silken moonlight.
The tide romancing the shore and kissing our feet.
Pulling us in ‘til we’re shoulders deep.
The moon like an oracle, your lips a shrine.
You always knew how to barter with your tongue.
Every word like a vesper.
My evening prayer: “I’ve never loved anyone the way I love you.”
Song: Love Me Tender — Elvis
