Hair

A flick of her hair and I'm enraptured.
At first I don't realize I'm staring at her.
Then her eyes meet mine, she smiles.
I'm falling in love with this girl.
Her hair gleams brightly in the dancing light.
She twirls round the fire.
Feet landing like feathers in the sand.
I step back from the rush of heat she brings.
Her arms wrap round my neck
Allowing me to catch her by the waist.
Spinning her round we slide across the beach.
Slipping we collapse into the water
Surrounded by rushing sounds.
I smile as her lips touch mine
A phone rings she jumps up.
Answering, she smiles at me.
Turning she runs to the street.
She pauses before the edge of the sand.
She writes something there
Waving she gets into a car.
I walk across to her writing.
And there is what I had hoped.
A phone number, area code and all.

I hadn't planned to go to the bonfire party, but I am glad I did.
