Monochrome sunset staining the sky
is bad news for sailors and lovers and others
who turn a blind eye to the east.
Driftwood and feathers and tumbled stones
that nobody else will see
wait for the sun, and for you my love
as you wait, as you wait
for me.
So go to the shore
and gather my petticoats
frothy and studded with salt.
Walk into the waves and
feel their embrace
as you wait, as you wait
for me.
This is for NaPoWritMo, and is driving me crazy. I think the cadence drifted a bit, but I'm running out of day #3! And I guess I'm linking it to nowhere - so please look for it on Facebook and Google+
