name in the sand

When you

inscribe your name in the sand,

you know

 it is transitory.

The faithful tide

is sure to come back

 to wipe its slate clean....

to make ready

for another day

of frail humanity bending down,

and with a finger, 

declaring their existence

on the

everchanging shore.

The music that I am listening to right now is so beautiful.
