Walked the Beach

They huddled beneath wind-swept dunes
. . .together in the sand.
His breath was soft against her skin. . .
her hair like silken strands.

And countless couples walked the beach
each thinking they're alone. . .
He held her close and tenderly
...for still the wind did moan.

But soon the sun began to rise
. . .while upon the sea they gazed.
Together they rose to meet the dawn. . .
the sun melting through the haze.

No longer close as once they've been
. . .all secret fully known.
And now these two, they walked the beach. . .
each thinking they're alone.
