This Lonely Shore
    The wind is sighing for you
    Missing the graceful softness
    It felt as it gently caressed your hair

    The dune tops fly away in anger
    Whipping up a sandy mist
    Searching for the soft feel of your skin

    A lone gull soars above motionless
    And calls out plaintively
    Listening for the sweet sound of your laughter

    The reeds bend and turn about
    Changing searching for a new form
    To once more please your sparkling eyes

    A wave rises up spraying back the foam
    And crashes with a pounding wrath
    Saddened your body no longer glides across him

    And the sun even he grows larger
    And rips holes in the crimson clouds
    Not knowing why he can’t see to warm you

    All of them wait with their offerings
    Precious gifts they gladly bestowed
    And all I can do is sit here on this lonely shore

    …and cry
