Poem- Grace

I cannot remember where I saw this ocean, this blue sky!

The ocean was deeper, the sky stretched even farther.

I remember the waves, the sun in the white surf,

The seagulls flying over the waves tucking the soft sun in their wings!

I listened and looked to the dim line where the sky stoops to the water,

We both took a flight on the wings of hope  to reach up above! But ah!

I found myself on  the shore like a grain of sand, you soared high.

In the tranquil of  the ocean, the stretch of  the  sky, the silence of the trees

Something drifted me to you that day.

You went beyond the blue sky only to reach the blue sky!

We were together, yet why we had to reach a far-off place?

You went up, you were lost, I became sand, but none lost grace.
