Landing on water

She said

Boy, you couldn't land on water if you fell off a boat!

 

He responded...

The wind created by the flutter of your eyelashes makes men believe they can spread their masts and set sail in the desert. As I stepped back to observe your beauty, I fell overboard and landed on dry reality.

 

As a tear rolled down the side of her cheek, I knew this lucky sailor had landed on water.
