Carol Mitra Poet Rhyme

Release

I let the sand run 
Through my fingers
Out of my hands 
Like a sift
However quick 
The sands may shift
Whatever distance 
I may drift
My heart 
Forever entwined 
When I face 
The sands of time!

I frame my thoughts 
And release it slow
The gentle breeze knits air
Waving it around
My pockets are full 
Which sands have found
My ears picking up 
Lapping waves a gentle sound 
I feel free a light bounce 
In no way bound
A rucksack of memories 
I leave behind
I drift out 
with nothing on my mind!

Mv Venkataraman July 13, 2022 at 3:18 AM Your poem has taught me a lovely way to release sadness of mind. Hereafter, if I go to the beach, I will follow this technique to leave all of my worries there by burying them under the sands. Thanks. Nice poem indeed.
