A Wisp of Mind
i recollect thoughts like shells
as i walk along
on the shores of time
alone
memories tumble
like waves at dawn
in remembrance of you
i feel the mist of salty spray
as it it runs down cheeks
like tears of yesteryears
now gone by
i hear the wisp of wind
fall like whispers
of words
unspoken
the pounding waves
in rhythm with my heart
as my feet sink
within the sand
and i stand
alone
in my thoughts
memories dissipating
beyond the fog
as the sun peaks
above it all
