Summer Love

Mild Millie makes castles in the hot summer sand
She tightens her shoulders and hides her big feet
Off the dunes the winds howl across uneven land
As I make my way onto the beach braving the heat
I can see Millie all alone sitting on a striped blanket
Her long legs pulled in and her smile is so sweet
While seagulls hover around her, she lightly blushes 
The sand is hot and I rush to her to gladly greet
Millie, usually colder than ice held me in her clutches
She kissed me and changed from an ice cream treat
Into a warm loving girl more like a breakfast sweet
And each day is like romance in a honeymoon suite
