"Julia Child's Birthday" (1912)
The waves lap at our feet as
we dance together through the sand.
You smile at me and grab my hand
as we start to run.
We wrestle in the soft sand letting it
flow through our fingers.
We lay down and let the sand cascade
slowly over our bodies.
You lean in to kiss me ever so softly,
holding each other so close.
We relax as the ocean waves go in and out,
watching the sunset as we become as one.

Did you know......Julia Child was a spy in WW II? See this link from the AP dated Aug 13, 2008....
“Famed chef Julia Child shared a secret with Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg and Chicago White Sox catcher Moe Berg at a time when the Nazis threatened the world. They served in an international spy ring managed by the Office of Strategic Services, an early version of the CIA created in World War II by President Franklin Roosevelt.”
