Stormy Weather At The Beach

Memories of a First Date ...

————

They walked down the beach,

two young hearts within reach,

hand in hand in the sand

as they strolled the long strand

between hotel and ocean,

hearts filled with emotion

and sharing the notion

of first date’s devotion.


They talked for a while

and her gaze met his smile

but he felt his heart wrench

watching her from the bench.

Holding tears from their flow

while the sun set below,

as his hopes drowned in gloom—

she walked to some guy’s room.
