Reappearance What do I have to grieve, but what was never lost But to the ecstasy of winds in flagrance tossed Just tenderness and sentiments that marked the day And will return when winds come blowing back this way? What now remains of love that was in finger’s reach And scattered as the sands upon a crystal beach Swept to another shore on crests that dolphins ride And will come back in poundings of another tide? Which was the star that gathered dreamers in its flight And sailed to the horizon like a falling kite Illuminating skies in glowing pageantry And soon will reappear in radiance to me? I beg the blowing wind, the sea and sky to give The precious moments passed that I may now relive The love that I once tossed into the willful breeze And reappears in prayer upon these bended knees Elizabeth Santos |

Liz "I beg the blowing wind, the sea and sky to give The precious moments passed that I may now relive The love that I once tossed into the willful breeze And reappears in prayer upon these bended knees" I pray for this too, for you! What beauty comes from your heart, my friend. I am always in awe of the words that come from that special place. |

What now remains of love that was in finger’s reach And scattered as the sands upon a crystal beach Swept to another shore on crests that dolphins ride And will come back in poundings of another tide? All the words are beautifully written, but I especially like these. Enjoyed very much. Susan |
