PRELUDE TO A KISS

"besame" says she

strolling along the playa
warm water laps at our feet
a warmer sun is browning our bodies

"besame mucho" she says

i unentwine my hand from hers
slowly rub it across a bare shoulder
my fingers disappearing
into a cascade of thick black hair

"besame" "besame mucho" says she

after a meal of pescado rojo
two or three cervezas negras
we stroll along the playa
warm water at our feet
a warming sun on our bodies
my fingers lost in thick black hair

"besame" "besame" "besame mucho" she says

kiss me again and again and again
and then guess what?

"kiss me one more time"
