A New Day

A New Day Yesterday we played in the sun Building sand castles at the beach With the waves of destiny guiding, guiding our steps. We pause. We look into each other's eyes, then out into the horizon, and our eyes moisten at the treadmill of life we're on..."we need to change, babe"...as if the voices and eyes in the ocean awakened. We fall back into each others arms, as the clouds in the sky scatter, giving us the stage. I whisper. She returns her answer with a kiss, as her fingers squeeze my nose. Her way of telling me she knows, too. 3/16/17
