Genetic Memories
Today........
I went to Green Key beach
with you behind my eyes,
your daughter had a silver net
to fill with my surprise
Twenty years slipped through
the holes with seaweed and
the shells
of broken hearted memories
but still I feel the swells
of thirsty tides that rose and fell
with all our hopes and dreams
your daughter sings our song so well
and she knows what it means
