Barefoot
in tender sands
of liquid gold moments
your touch was in the ocean spray.
Each grainy treasure slid between my toes
until sand gave way to barbed rocks.
Bleeding our memories,
I walked away
barefoot.

Knowing Night
I tasted sad heart with both feet this night,
buried in light sand, tides do what they do
to reveal poetic you...
even the sun must know night is night.

This was the best part

What a great analogy. I could imagine walking on the beach, feeling love's gentle touch and then its loss. You are an amazing writer, I was excited to see you had posted something new, a great way to start my day.
