We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage / And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die, / We Poets of the proud old lineage / Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why ... (James Elroy Flecker)

Summer Love #12: Skinny dipping in the moonlight

The prompt at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai is for a haiku or tanka on

Skinny dipping in the moonlight
 
in the summer ocean
swimming in our naked skins,
we float on moonlight


(I'm not responding to every prompt, so the numbering system in this series is my own.)
