TRUCE
written by: Cristina Munoz

we swam together
racing one another
like cheeky alpha children
way back to the bay shore
lying side by side later
skin slightly touching
our laughter subsiding
she called out, “TRUCE”
smiling wide as i agreed
spent on the warm sand
while looking up
silently welcoming
the strong noon sun
our breathing settling
we felt a hot full rush
of happiness lasting
simply by seeking
each other’s resting
still wet hand
