Once Upon A Time

Memories upon the Shores. Painting by Josephine Wall

Ocean waves are ripples
of the past,
memories on the shores
once upon a time.

The salty taste of the breeze
lingering on passions tongue,
ebb and flow of desire,
'neath a sweet sorrow moon.

Forget- me- not tides
whisper of a starry night,
and a rivulet of moonlit waves
cascades down the back
of a memory.

Still, I wallow in it's sway,
If only for a little while.

I thought I could almost feel the sea spray, or so I thought; until I awoke to my waterbed mattress leaking; beautiful poem!

This is a smooth articulation of ... well, pretty much how I view my existence, and that of others...
we are merely stuck here, caught between dreams.
