Salty Skin

Sun rays lay on us comfortably

In parks and buses

Even windows can't distinguish the bond

Between body and heat.

Our hearts move in sync with the love for dogs

Running freely

And the birds chirping

And the bees floating

Around our naked feet.

Malibu sits in the rivers in our stomachs

Warm and sweet,

A great treat,

Until a gargle lets us know that we must eat.

Notes buzz into our ears from close by

And steam from barbecues dance into our noses.

The only thing that most of us would change

Is our salty skin. Yet,

This moment cannot be beat.
