My One Bidding of Goodbye

Wandering across this satiated beach
Occasionally lit by the ruddiness of moon
Softly lashed by a brackish winter wind
Flavored with the hint of winters first snow

Uneven staggered imprints upon the waters edge
Carving my pathway through faces in the sand
Marking instances of this clarity ridden trekking
Across this rough faceted cacophonic seashore

Embossments of my greatest creations sounds
Nothing more than a drop in this art filled ocean
Overlooked or misunderstood by searching eyes
While once many voices fade out to near silence

Beyond the sandcastles written past many twilights
The waves filled with new voices upon tides rolling in
Washing away his thoughts and the last of his essence
Cleansing all impressions of vaguely recalled verses

Smoothed over and lost his footprints in the sand
Gone the previously heard verses of a friend
Just an instant in remembrance of an almost existed
Withdrawn from the silence of this crowded beach sand
