She smiles as her thoughts stray from the book she holds
to the memory of the night before.

A night of shared smiles and whispers of love
as they slow danced across the veranda.

The gentle breeze from the sea,
mingled with the scent of honeysuckle touched their cheeks,
as the stars seemed to be shining just for them.

The veranda, their summer place,
a place to enjoy the beauty of their everlasting love.
