Sifted Sand
Sweetly sifting sand
through fingers each
with lifted eyes, we engage
a Romeo star
on Juliet beach.
Comet trails of stolen
light plucked and
placed on gentle
tide, until at last
our sifted sand lay
scattered by the shorely breeze,
on blue-like
Monet, sea foam
painted,
where waters rose and
flatly washed.
The wave, it came, its
breaker tall, like high
and skyward spires reach,
and severed from
the moonlit sky
a Romeo star
on Juliet beach.
