The sea embraces the evening sun
in the distant horizon;
The rolling waves kisses the shore
with endless commotion;
A hand in a hand strolls
Along the beach with untainted adoration;
Solitary footsteps trail along the sand
With the weight of hope and anticipation;
As I walk alone without you

Aha...like life, so many of us who've come
to the blue pages have done so with our
first footsteps in the sand...

I hadn't even noticed that this was your first post (just came in because of the title) and I have been truly glad that I did.  Your ending packs a powerful punch to an excellent write...my favorite lines being:

"Solitary footsteps trail along the sand
With the weight of hope and anticipation;"

...that is an exceptional image...well done & welcome...looking forward to more

Alas and drat! These days, unfortunately come more often than not it seems. While out there on that beach, take a look around. Might see something worth a second look. Press on. Try not to look back, which I realize is difficult to do.
