I would give anything for adventure if you would give everything for love.

Smoky

Waves of lilting Spanish
Wash over me
A gentle bath
Scents of sea salt, coconut, and tortillas
Chatter of children, Señor! Señor!
Only two pesos!
Will look nice on señora, no?

Tiny guitars painted blue
Seagulls swooping at fried bread
Bold patterned blankets strung across booths
Colours singing in cobalt skies
Beaded embroidery
Sand scattered streets
Smoky.
