Lit Pathways

Night has fallen, darkness envelops us. The fire has died down, all that’s left are embers of burning wood. A long beach walk to a hidden path is perfect now. I excitedly take your hand and we walk down the beach. I have placed a marker so I don’t lose my secret spot. The marker is a beautiful grove of orchids, every color imaginable. Turning behind my orchids, just beyond the palm trees, we find the surprise.

I have carefully placed purple solar lights in the sand dunes. Hanging from the trees, sparkling lights of all colors. It’s a magical rainbow of light tonight. There’s a gazebo, I lead the way. A natural spring hot tub is the big reveal. Beautiful rocks and glowing blue water. Steam is coming from the top of the water. Just beyond, a waterfall in the lagoon.

Taking our clothes off we have a bath. Giggling and kissing, the night is perfect, here under our stars and perfect lighting. I sit in your lap and we hold each other for hours. As we head back to the gazebo I announce there’s one last event. The gazebo is really a place for us to sleep tonight. There’s a gigantic bed filled with pillows and all of the finest linens. It’s heart shaped of course!

We take our time walking under the lights, and finally collapse in my bed of love.
