Ebbs and Flows
Signatures written in the sand
No one knows the ebbs and flows, the rhythm or the rhyme, out of the blue, it is true, they can happen anytime.
Now the moon, like a balloon, floats amongst the clouds, and the tide cannot hide, behind the budding crowds.
And on the shore, there is more, signs of ebbs and flows, signatures written on the sand the shells that lie in rows.
In between another scene, is seen from far within, it’s written in the wind it seems, the forefront of my dreams.
Like a bird I’ve seen and heard, the changes in the air, and have felt, I could melt, if I didn’t care.
Now it’s gone, the dreams dissolved, the rises and the falls, resounding in the mountains, to echoing birds calls.
On the beach you’re out of reach you blink then disappear part of the moon and the swoon then on a rising tide you reappear.
