The Sand Now
The sand now
is such a challenge.
Balance, strength
endurance.
I think I can't,
just can't.
Every ten small
staggering
steps
I stop,
just can't...
catch my breath.
But I do
and onward
towards the ocean
I trudge
exhausted
overwhelmed
and yet
such delight
as the Atlantic
grows louder,
closer, I can
just barely
can,
and am.
