Gravity

The wind blows
loose sand along
the beach, dancing
over wet and damp 
and pebbles left
by tides and
small children.
Footprints sink,
filling with water,
then melting into the
land as the
birds fly overhead,
curious only for foe
or food.
Hopes float 
on seafoam
and tumble in the
troughs of waves,
borne on Neptune's 
shoulders while we
search the shore for treasures.

Welcome to Dreams of Shadow and Light. My name is KJ Roe. Among my many weaknesses, words, water, and chocolate are eclipsed only by time with loved ones. When I'm not writing, you might find me taking way too many pictures of sunsets or dancing in my kitchen. Words help me find my way through the dark times and to hold onto the bright ones. May you find here a bit of light for your shadows.
