Here's my entry into the Fifty Word Challenge run by @jayna. Full contest post is here. The theme is "sea."

Under the quiet lilt of night’s murmur, a bobbing, creaking skiff labored to reach the shore.

When it rested its bow on the beach, a man hopped out. He called to his lover, who came bounding towards him with happy arms. Off they went.

The boat smiled.

The sea wept.
