a trail of love springs forth with morning glories as rain disperses drops, on steaming, searing sand temperate waves leave kisses on briny shores alike a ring placed on the ankle of a new bride moonlight is tasting the glitter of dusk in Valencia an artist captures musical notes and the hearts of women dancers, on canvas, his wife, and one true lady love mermaids sprinkle gold on their pale skin while braiding memories interlocked in bright orange locks fishers bring in their catch; sunburned tourist dance on the docks God mixes taste and sounds of nature, life, and love upon His lands while a little one kneels beside her bed, saying prayers with folded hands
