Summer poems on sandy shores
Constellations changing time
Mountains rise above Great Lakes
Dunes below, bare feet to climb
Castles line old waterfronts
Stars at night, the Milky Way
Dreams between entangle me
Lines of age, wishing to stay
And so I did, yesteryear
Memories aglow with light
Ripples carry reflections
Decorate seasons in flight
