They walked along the river bank, hand in hand,
while the birds sang a sweet melody of rhyme.
They did not notice the time or stop along the way.
They were lost in their private world, enjoying the day.
When the sun finally began to set, they headed for home.
Now leaving the outside world behind, they lost themselves in each other, entering into a sublime union of desire.
But they were in no hurry.
They had waited so long for this.
So they savoured and enjoyed every touch, every kiss.
Some hours later, she woke up to the sound of rain.
Alone, but how could this be?
It was only a dream.
