Reveries From a Box

There is a magical yet languid summer hint, In cupping white- powdered sand That’s not unlike a warm delight… Of gently observing a quivered roll As it wends its way down past grasses ; On our memorable August coastline To somewhere new, some place unknown. And delicate grains, earthy as your breath, Move through the cylinder of my mind Bringing back reveries from yesterday… And pulling us down to a sandbox of dreams Where I linger linger to think of you; Like summers’ coastline… flowing gently into me. Brian Strand No 750 Contest

Incredible poem! You gave me a new dimension to think outside of the box. A gentle flowing sea this is! Faving it.

I've traveled the paintings of your poetry and have found a sensitive soul using words in three dimensions....your last line flows gently like the coastline you've described

I've never in my life wanted to play in a sandbox until now. Damn, nette, I believe you could make a phone book sound romantic.
