Whitecaps danced neath a yellow moon
O’er a darkening sapphire sea!
A couple strolled the forward deck
Hand in hand, cheek to cheek.
At midnight, near the bow of the ship
They stole a warm embrace.
Desire scorched his very soul
At the beauty of her face.
Her body pressed against him
Burning passion in his stare!
Naked neath her clinging dress
Every nerve he owned aware!
Imprisoning him with her fiery craze
She shook him to his core.
Savagely taking all that he had
Until he could give no more!
Night had deepened into dawn,
Not another soul around,
It seemed the ship was theirs alone
What paradise he had found!
Still dizzy from the ample drink
She’d plied him with that night,
He wondered if he’d see her again
Their tryst had been so right!
Leaning over the rail, he gazed at the sea
Eyes blurred from lack of sleep,
When from behind she shoved him hard
Casting him into the deep!
His silent scream lost in the wind
As life flashed fore his eyes!
No time to question what she’d done
Death an unwelcome surprise!
Demonic laughter followed him
As she watched him slip away,
Knowing victim number four
Would be hers later on that day!
