Cool water splash
defies burning summer heat
like a cannonball in a
“No Diving” zone
Tangy, citrus tongue and
lips red as Cherry Coke
Sweet, bubbling
like a kiss underwater
Pats and glances
sly smiles under Mama’s
watchful eye
I dare you to think
indiscreetly.
Midnight before reality
speedy hands fly like lightning
you like, I like
We say goodnight.
