Heart-light

For those we miss

~~~
Wait silently by the water's edge this evening
feel the sand slipping away beneath your toes
a lapping warmth
of rising tide at your ankles
Senses
detecting a familiarity
carried in from across the waves
A feathered breeze
caresses your cheek
Its fingers gently tousle your hair
Its breath finds the trail of a lonely tear
slowly
faintly
drying to its touch

You're feeling a kiss from those you miss

These feelings
returned in trust of the rising moon
Find heart-light
aglow
at their source
~~~

"Heart-Light"
McEltic,
The ongoing rise and fall of every tide and the message. We live, we change.
"A feathered breeze
caresses your cheek
its fingers gently tousle your hair
its breath finds the trail of lonely tear
slowly
faintly
drying to its touch
Your feeling a kiss from those you miss"
Very relevant and real.
This life is not permanent but is precious
in its vulnerable reality.
Beautiful poem.
Blessings,
Kathy

Thank you... i try to create an experience most times rather than relate to one. Although both have their good points
