BUCKET LIST WISH FULFILLED (AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL)
BUCKET LIST WISH FULFILLED
Dyffryn Sands, naturist beach, Wales.

Just before noon.
(May make you smile warmly,
‘my girls’ on D.U.P.)
On Thursday most sunny,
And at beach most sandy,
Bucket list ticked for me:
First skinny-dip, in sea.
At the age of sixty,
Swimming as God’s made me
(though without company
Of like-minded lady).
Water at first chilly,
Soon felt on me warmly.
So wonderfully free
I felt in my body.
It’s how it used to be,
Quite unabashedly
Like Adam and Eveie,
Before they ate from tree.

Author's Note
Fulfilment (apart from being unpartnered, the only women present were part of couples and I had travelled there solo) of my 2018 poem Bucket List Wish, beginning:
It is upon my bucket list
to swim at a beach naturist...
It is upon my bucket list
to swim at a beach naturist...

A sincere and respectful tribute
to those inspiring your pen
a role model for us dolts
engaged in Dante’s sins
Honored to call you “amigo”
gentle soul I admire leave
a light on the path so I can traverse when out is my fire

I just felt it might look intrusive if I tried to chat to a woman with a partner. I was among strangers, the beach being a 2 hour drive from home in England.

I really enjoyed this Solomon. It's a very naturistic coupling of man and nature. Well cone.
