Last Sighting

Still searching we walk to edge of tide To where waters tickle the toes At different edge each night Here you were last seen That dreadful night Disappearing Washed away with tidal sands and seas Your mind tormented with unease Released by natures blessing As each wave comes over Fleeting moments lost As older things remembered Your footprints gone only whispers remain Your life we shared and loved, we cared Left to us are solemn memories Of many days gone by And still we try To find your Lonely soul Lost And so the seaside weathers gently call And seagulls cry around rocky shore Last sighting of you was walking In the sand one misty evening And although not one print Was left for us to find There is some peace From knowing that You were smiling
