STEAL AWAY

Those times when sandy beaches

called out our names;

So loud and clear, we answered,

with aeroplane rides;

When the bloom of love flowered

in every season;

To steal away was natural,

it was so easy.

    I love the simplicity of your poem, Gillena. It is elegant and whistful and leaves me feeling a little sad. Thanks for sharing.

    A seaside vacation can never be wrong. Agreed Gillena!
