Angels in Sand
by Kara HayostekArms and legs spreading
angels indented in sand
together, in love
surf washed over feet
Breeze caressed dewy faces
lost, outside of time
side by side we sat
eyes wandered new horizons
marveling our luck
sand we thought molten
by the heat of emotion
carefully destroyed
grain by precious grain
whisked away by gentle breeze,
the waves took the rest
we wondered how, that
gorgeous sun had set on us
lost in thought, we were
realizing that
time, stealthy thing that it is
declared a draw
we each walked away
bearing the only thing we ever
truly could have had
the only ever-
lasting, enduring, true love
seemed to be ourselves 03/05/2012
