Grains of Sand
We floated through that year together
falling as a grain of sand,
through the hourglass of time
from Eden’s Edge unplanned.
Those planes, in shifting, gifted us
with vistas of our heart.
We shared the passion born inside
each new rainbow’s start.
Mirrors of our eyes became
the sunlight that we knew.
Longing reached, with thirsty hearts,
to grasp our seconds few.
Whispers from our lips escaped unheard.
Feelings felt without the need of word.
Life we cherished soon became us.
Different time, and yet the same us.
Footsteps tuned with echoes
from a distant church yard bell
softly ringing, each day’s end
as in each other’s arms we fell.
It was a year of magic memories
born with love to fill.
It lasted just a moment then,
but lingers ever still.
