Topic: the soft sands | |

the soft sands dry underfoot and the dune has staked this piece of earth water and sky the following sigh for a stroll even now go so moving so the dunes are there receding from the beach the air salt spray morning slips into the day fresh and light with a dancing star the nights long dance from afar and moving moving in an even pace there is no hurry there is no race but the undulations of a winding way to the dunes and shore and even more where will this go but a venture a sight a memory made into the crisp dawn the welcome said the grasp of comfort the tight closeness and visions and ways before the long afternoon and the day --- |

you are not invisible you are the rain before the screen the droplets seen in vertigo essence the semblance what was past the cool mist that clings to the green lawns and drifting drifting towards the sea the green serene a tidy now i put the cups away anyhow and after tea the trumpets then and after tea tearful wending as the mist would be there is no after tea but crumbs to brush away there will be tea again some other day --- |

i wouldn't the dark skies overing i wouldn't the night colder still i wouldn't the feelings of emptiness i wouldn't i couldn't the sliding tide i couldn't the powdered sand i couldn't the screaming overhead i couldn't i shouldn't linger before dawn i shouldn't allow a good day gone i shouldn't find all those missing minutes i shouldn't but i will abrade these toes but i will soak them in a surf but i will jog until the moon fly's but i will --- |

where the wilds roam so far to be so far from home satchel coat and waders graphite rod fly fish fly the icy waters flow from the cascade even though spring is in the air spring is almost here slip coat and let the breeze sigh across your chest this is the sigh of openness and less an all surrounding gyre after air than build build yet the fire with drift limb or trunk the guides of years so far and left upon this rocky bed so ar from where these steps have led you pick and stack you choose and wait the kindled spark becomes something great and turning whipping hungry grow this is the fire and this is even so a moment this breath prepare a meal for quick repast and the fire at your back has and even match as the sun falls slowly gracefully to expire --- |

light as a feather as light as you please for something was floating on a light breeze and all was quiet except for the rustle all was quiet as seasons change and moods are different or moods are strange the air is burnt or crisp and the winging vee southern flies for there is a turning while turning inside and all the day while watching so all the day there was a blow and a blast as the seasons change isn’t it strange it was different last year it was cold or dark or slow but there was a rustle and a light breeze it started out different differently strange and i found these old postcards they were from an age when steam was a motion so differently strange and carriages roared across continents wide and i was lost in the hustle an emigrant heart and these shores were open as no country strange for this was land of prairies and dust if the rain was late like everything must you’d find the dry memento you’d fold it and say light as a feather on a light breeze --- |

I the poet with pen in hand,
or just a finger in the sand. Writing all my hopes, my dream.. often trees or a lady's gleam. Spilling always, dark and light; telling, in truth, all i see. Whether darkened cloud, or starlit night, all but memories straight from me. Thanks, nice writes & a4leafclover2u2 |

the sea escaping
rushing fading washing in out flying by our time sips on the top devouring all in it weight against the irony of will to trash the waves drift swelling whales peek and flight worldly journey birds of prey stop look the wise said now, with destruction see what you did man made waste lays around filling trash so abound death reaps on ocean floors oil spills and clogs their pores I love the flow, never seen this before hope you don't mind if I dabble in for a time. Thank you, TB |

stopping clocks while we would play the second hand can’t find our way but timeless grooveless all the while it moves us the dawn upon the dappled day how is that you’re so far away stopping clocks while we should play the other hand can’t find the day but nameless tones all the while it moves us the dawn so very very far away how are you my little stray --- |
