Sand Dollar

Dearest sand dollar, bring me piece Bring me tomorrow and an ocean rose Bring the wind that I might hear you That I might know your wisdom Dearest sand dollar, hold together Give me hope and a friend on the beach Give leave to shadows and jade So I can smile at the hot sunshine Dearest sand dollar, last forever Leave me with nothing more to need Leave me warm in the night For I wish to grow fruit in my garden Dearest sand dollar, break in the waves Show me a fragment of perfection Show me that the sun will always set I want to be more than just another sand dollar in the sand Inspiration: Written when I was in search of my wife. I knew she was here somewhere; I was just having trouble figuring out where exactly.
