The Mediterranean Sea
is out there
Miriam said.
You and she
sat on the beach
looking out at the sea
lit up by the moon.
You and she
had just made love
in a small sand dune.
Stars sparkled over head
and over the sea.
And we are here
you said.
Behind you
up the beach
was the camp base
and the tents.
A party was going on
which you both
had sneaked away from
to be alone
and have ***
She looked up
at the sky:
I guess my mother
is looking
at this moon now
Miriam said
she likes gazing
at the moon
but she is in England
and we are here
in Morocco
but same moon.
The party was noisy
you could hear music
and singing from the beach.
Those stars may
have burnt out
hundreds of years ago
or more
but we still see the light
from maybe dead stars
you said.
She lay down
and you lay beside her.
She kissed you
and put her arms
about you again.
She was still naked
from the waist down
so were you.
Someone
was playing a guitar
the sound hung in the air.
You made love again
without worries or care.
