Love Poem: We Went Swimming

We Went Swimming

We went swimming

The blue sky reflected in the mirror surface, 
the forest covered hills all glistening in the sun

No clothes, tanned skin, soft, wet, your eyes smiling

Our bodies breaking the mirror in laughter and splashes

Breath taken from the first coldness

Then warmth

Circling, floating, we swim in the expanse

Surrounded by green under open skies

Caressed by clear water, refreshed in it’s clasp

We approach, hands take hands

Arms encircle

We kiss the water drops from soft tender lips

Eyes softening, we hold tight

Legs entwined, floating, a freedom seldom felt

Laying back, gazing in love, adoring such beauty

We went swimming
