mandala whispers "be aware" sandcastles bleeding into air as the tide recedes...pull wind, with promises to build again. every grain be counted now usurping form of molded vow as the sun relentless stares and water's play sprays unaware droplets not enough to keep the chiseling of mad wind's weep... and as the sun colors the sky to mark the end of day's demise the tide returns from sea to beach sandcastles remnants, swept from me.

Beautiful setting and the mood is marvelous...good images ....a wonderful write! Any thing that gets swept away can be built again....take care. The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

As the sandcastles are built and washed away by the waves or the mother nature, so is the the things that are built in our heart. Yours too......  Bernie Bernie Slicker |

I like watching children build them on the beach ... they react with a playful attitude ... they just keep building them closer to the water [This message has been edited by Rex Allen McCoy (edited 03-19-2001).] |

Perhaps sandcastles are simply sculpted life built with hurried caring as we feel the tide approaching impermanent as we humans are in truth sandcastles are all our homes "Be your own hero. Save your interior landscape. As in all mythos the blight can be defeated and the land turned back to freedom and fertility. |

JM...thank you, finally a sandcastle that won't wash away. You always touch me with your thoughtfulness! Hugs! Kari? Your concern touched my heart as well...was quite a memorable day, considering it's the fifth time in four months I set the house on fire...sigh...and? worry not...with all of this practice? I'm pretty good at putting out my own fires!  bernie---I thank you for that sweet thought---hugs and gratitude! Rex? it's either that, or dig a trench--but true, children do live in the moment, don't they? Thank you my dear friend. Hope you are well.Sven...I think part of the sadness is that there's seldom a trace...wasn't as bad as the nude sand woman I built once, sunbathing...grin, and? her breasts kept blowing away!  and what did she hold? a Budweiser! Sandra, thank you much, and I'm so pleased to see your spirits have picked up! Hugs. AT---yes, that's the only way to look at it...the only constant IS change! Thank you! Paula...You've been a sweetheart...thanks to you too...(I do make friends out of the oddest circumstances) Ethan, my friend I've missed you! So happy to see you posting again...and? I'm trying to catch up on my reading tonite...will be reading YOU! PK---you DO say the sweetest things!  SEA...I love your enthusiasm, and admire your work much....HUGS and thanks to you, lady! seymour? forgive me...I came back just to thank you. I love your poetry, and wouldn't dream of slighting you! Thanks for reading. You honor me. Thanks to the forum for being so patient with me while I iron out my pc probs---You guys ARE great! and still yet another Jethro Tull quote: "and the sandcastle virtues, are all swept away, in the tidal destruction- the moral melee. The elastic retreat rings the close of the day as the last wave uncovers the new-fangled way. But your new shoes are worn at the heels and your suntan does rapidly peel and your wise men don't know how it feels---to be thick as a brick" [This message has been edited by serenity (edited 03-22-2001).] |
