Collected

Collected 
 
Come play with Me here
in the surf
O my soul
 	
Come splash in the edge of my
tide	
soft foamy white tickling toes
covering feet
lapping your sand castle designs
 
Kick up my sand
as you twirl
as you dance
cartwheeling wind by your side
 
Find treasures I've placed for 
you
stars
rock
scattered shells
 
Gather Me up
with delight
into deep pockets I go
bulging full
overfilled
 
Tuck me carefully crunching away until home
where we go
to be placed into thoughtful jars
upon shelves
window sills
Your pride of today
collected
 
waiting
 
for sight
