Ocean breeze

‘If I said your feelings for me were like the tossing waves of the ocean, never stable always changing, what would you say?

‘I would say that only a boat atop the wave knows which way it tosses and turns.’

She sighed.

He smiled.

‘And if I said you delve into the very depths of my heart like a demented pirate on uncharted waters ..?’

‘I would say fear not mi’lady for I will chart every inch of your depth with care till I find the delta of your love.’

She smiled.

He grinned.

Gentle caresses buoy on summer’s warm breeze.
