Rusted memories

 


She knelt  with ease on golden sand 


Blue striped towel, sweet, soft hands 


A dream I saw,  glimpsed in repose 


The stretching limbs, the pointing toes 


That aimed her beauty toward the sea 


The queen of all desires 


And all that love inspires


Those pining thoughts of used to be 


Her silken hair grown silver now


And wrinkles crease the once smooth brow 


Vision she was, a tortured thrill 


In floating clouds of memories still


That flit like fishes in the sea 


Oh, memories how  you comfort me 


Rusting thoughts when life was grand 


Treasured visions, sun blessed sand.
