Though vibrant summer images have faded to black and white,
your kisses linger on my lips like wildflower honey,
and the ocean between us whispers your name.
Alone, I gaze beyond the glimmering horizon
to your distant shore and wonder
whether you hear my voice
on lapping waves, or
feel my infinite
sea spray
kisses.
