A storm came upon us but our feet remained in the sand,

The mist of rain in the air and the smiles on our faces.

No, this storm was not planned

But the unexpected is our best graces.

We danced to the rhythm of the waves

as rain fell without mercy.

The little crabs went into their caves

Yet, we stayed without worry

The wind pushed us off our balance,

And the waves came just after

Enough to crumble a sand palace,

Yet, we only worried about our laughter

If nights are as long as they say,

Then I don’t want to spend them any other way.

A moment was stolen,

A moment ours with no words spoken.
