Pentacle

Five lines in the sand – his quintet of children is skimming the surf

Like ariels chasing youth not yet knowing Plath’s substanceless blue

Streaming chariots of gleams into fireflies dragons dinosaurs and castles

Oblivious to extinction the full impact of tides and dereliction of beauty

Just foot prints on the shore reaching fast for jetsam flotsam and joy
