......
A stirring of sandpiper feet on cool sand,
evening swells with waves under an ebbing glow.
Feathers brush memory’s floating thoughts
releasing trickling tears of unrealized wishes.
The lost are found inside your mind where they still live,
white fluffs of clouds blooming in moonlight,
as you tread softly among your fragile yesterdays.

remorse
color me blue, I should remind myself, its of my own doing, that is...what my mind makes of this ...where I let it go. And for those memories of yesterdays' now years, all too many tears have I spent. I'm captured in your moment Sprite, would easily find myself there, were it not for the serenity of the breaking waves, and everso watchfull face ...my bella luna. I love your poem.
