The First Kiss
The cool warmth of a late summer evening
And the light of the moon on the water,
The soft break of the sea on the shingle
And the warmth of that first embrace.
The full moon shimmered on the water,
The sea was so still and so calm,
The beach was our perfect setting for
Two people moving as one.
Unplanned and not even hoped for,
That first quick passing kiss;
Two people needing each other,
Two souls becoming as one.
And the moon shone down on the water
And the wavelets lapped on the beach,
As we embraced one another
In that innocent, momentary peace.
And the world now lies open before us,
A world that offers such change,
And the kiss that we kissed between us,
Turned the world upside down from now on.
And may we always remember,
That wonderful heart felt joy,
That once in a lifetime moment,
That first loving kiss on the beach.
