Imagination Writing

In the desert

She is wearing a shabby dusty garb, sand blemishes apparent, laughing with excitement; her hair tangled with sand, face stained. She has clutched her knees bensing down as she's tired, but chin up, eyes sparkling glued to me with passion; voice hoarcing with panting out of fatigue- still aspiring more love from me; running after me to catch me for a tight hug...
 I am tired though but wanting you to chase me again to catch me,  to push me down to the sand again and love me...
You want to play, play like a kid; run after me and tickle me so that I can fall down hence  to be mounted on by you...
I remain docile, letting you catch me, push me down so that I can feel your love and I too can give vent to my overwhelming love feelings.
Now I see you tired, gasping out of fatigue; lying straight on me. I cuddle you for some time then I make you sit up. I stand up and hold you in my arms, you coiling yours round my neck, thus I taking you to a resting place to get you some composure...
You lost your earrings... you are searching for them. But I've already found them and kept in my pocket...
I say, "You rest here under the tree...I'll get back to you... I'll get you shoes from there"... after sometime  as I come back, I see my love resting her head on bear sand which I couldn't bear, thus I lifted her head tenderly and slowly slid my lap under it. Now I'm trailing my fingers thru your hair, darling. I clear the sand sticking to your hair and face. I let you sleep as long as you wish...
As I kissed your forehead you swiftly opened your shining eyes, spotting me. You lifted your right hand and carressed my stained face to clear the sandy blemishes...
