Blank Verse
Love in the Sand
by TAB_that's me
Two lovers walking hand-in-hand across the wind-swept ocean shores, their simple note of love recorded on the sandy beach. How many drafts of love have been removed, enfolded in the waves to cross the blue, then tossed upon the shore athwart the sea? How many grains of sand have held the words of love or seen initials framed in hearts, then buried deep inside the crashing waves?
