Poetry on the Sands

August 5, 2025

This romantic poem is a collaboration with my close friend, the lovely and exceptionally talented Poetess, Penny Granger, hailing from the United Kingdom. Some dreams come true, and I’m wishing on a star…

Soft moonbeams
Engaging dreams
Tropical distant shores draw us near

Paradise
It feels so nice
Taking note, now awake, vision clear

Hand in hand
Footprints in sand
As we stroll, breaking waves ebb and flow

Summer breeze
Warm turquoise seas
Give us pause, call to rest, murmurs low

Finding shade
Our bodies swayed
Happiness arm in arm, holding tight

Heavenly
Our love set free
Emotions crescendo, taking flight

Suavecito, by Malo (1972) – see lyrics here.

  It surely was wonderful, my darling lady and collaborator in arms, a scene set for two, me and you. Sharing the same dream and wishing on a star together, makes a powerful pairing, amplifying in likelihood our wish is understood, on course to be realized. Thank you, my sweet friend, and let’s do it again, as I send all my love from the US—>UK, priority mail always ❤️
