Patterns in the sand

 J. Sgrignoli

My eyes have seen
The crystal mandala

The design inscribed in the stars

The timeless,

Infinite beauty of the universe

Imprinted in a grain of sand.

I have been waiting my whole life

To see the world through

These bejewelled eyes

A kaleidoscope of dreams

A deep awakening from the water’s edge

Soft

Sizzling

Foaming

Spritz !

The ebb and flow of the tide

Mirrors my own heart’s content

I feel free
and humbled to feel

To speak the words

I love you

With genuity and grace
What else could there be?

Some people wait their whole lives for this...

Tell me-- what do you long for?
