"the Shore"

Grains of sand wash up
        between my toes, and they stay 
                                till the tide comes in.

Like Alyssa mentions, the feeling of sand between ones toes. It's as if your sifting every soul who has walked the earth and meeting them all. Another delightful Haiku Micahel >> James
