Love Poem: Solar Sailors

Solar Sailors

Rising
      on convection currents
           let the heat waves take you higher
   
Sunspots on the eye of reason
      bright obsessive radiation,

casting shadows on  the desert
       rippling on the rolling ocean
             rise and fall across the mountains

leaning out against the sunset
      burning sails on the horizon,

Solar sailors, lost in love.
