No cell service

Two weeks together, untethered from everything but each other.

Endless: the crystal blue horizon, the celestial bodies in the night sky, the revealing depths of soulful eyes, the smoothed granules under feet bare, and shivers shooting across quenched skin touched with care.

Weightless in the warm water, lightly flavored with the zest essential for life, made tangier with their penetrating passion, lifting the tide. Two bodies floating freely. The ocean floor pulsing gently. Layers of tension freed and swallowed by the sea.

Somewhere in the distance a cell phone, barless, dies.

Connection lost.

            less is needed

Connection found.

            to have more

Thank you for stopping by! Wishing you a wonderful day and week ahead. On a personal note, I’ve been dealing with a terrible cold for too many days, stealing my voice in several ways. Made leading a writing group this week a bit strained. I’ve tried to release it to the mat and dance it away, but it’s stubborn – extending its stay! Including rest, I’ve been drowning myself in ginger, lemon, and honey tea and dreaming of lightly salted warm seas… Kind regards. Michele
