by Stephanie F. Earls
it was sweet on the beach
late in the day
i thought of you
the water crispy and noisy
the sun warm and subtle
i think there was a storm coming in
the sky hazy
the wind non-stop and strong and warm
i thought of you
five different temperatures all at once
between water and air
my body the bridge from earth to heaven
i thought of you
and if you stood to the wind, and closed your eyes
which i did
it felt like flying
i spread my arms wide, to hold the wind while i floated against it
life inside me and all around
it was so wonderful
i thought of you
