Sangre de Cristo

Turquoise bright the color of his eyes dazzling across the broken mesa. Laughter tumbles deep within his chest to gather speed and hurl from his mouth in a riotous bramble. The vibration embraces her, as warm as red rock sunset humming deep into every bone He sashays in. Brilliant as a summer day, merging excitement with a sweet candied smile. She settles on a random drift of earth and denies the racing of her heart.
