Love Letters In The Sand

The sun was like the balloon of a child
High above sealing of deep blue sky
When I searched for my body
Between sand , flower and grass
Where dogs and cats wee in need
Where waves jump up like a dog
The sun big


In a blue circle of light
Me writing love notes in the sand
But get washed away by the sea
In rhythm


Of ebb and flow
Blow by blow


Go, go, go
The seal with his round head
Washes away with the sea wheat
I find peace


In the movement of the ocean
Dark will come and cover me again
As the sun tumbling down behind the trees
Like a balloon big and light
I look down to my hands
A letter that say’s


“I love you”
Now here I stand
With my love letter written in the sand
My love for you banned
And all that’s left to do
Is to write some more
Letters in the sand
Never to be sent
Telling you


How much
I love you

Tinka,

Sad and yet beautiful poem. Even tides can't wash a hearts message written in the sand.

There's something intensely intimate and yet releasing, writing these notes in the sand, knowing that the thoughts are "out there" and yet will be dissipated within hours of leaving them. Bittersweet but healing, I think, and part of the ebb and flow of life. Wonderful to be able to "hear" your voice in my "inner ear" now. I can imagine your pace and easy rhythm as you would speak this. TY LOL Kate xx

You naughty, naughty girl - writing another sad sad poem.

This is quite powerful, Tinky, but I liked your poetic reading of Naughty Naughty Girl much better - very nice to finally hear your voice, too!

Well now Tinka...now that I've heard your voice, on your Poem of the Day, when I read you from now on, I can imagine that you are reading these for me.
This one is gorgeous! Touching and tenderly penned from your heart.
Exceptional.

ps: My half of our brain, doesn't seem to be working as well as yours...I suppose you kept the side with all the talents? *grin*
